My (Occasionally) Half-Assed Kitchen — Weekend Meditation
I admit that I sometimes I do things kind of half-assed in the kitchen. I’ll throw flowers into a vase without first trimming the stems or fail to thoroughly read a recipe before beginning to make it. I’ll not brown the meat enough for the stew or not measure carefully when careful measuring is called for. The results, while not disasters, are often not as good as they could be. They’re not bad, but they’re not perfect. They’re, well, they’re kind of half-assed.
Is this OK?

“Make your own applesauce with this recipe using lemon juice and lemon zest to enhance the apple flavor. Great for immediate enjoyment or for freezing.”
Creamy Celery Soup
While much of the country digs out from several feet of snow, here in Sacramento the weather is finally beginning to act like winter. Thank you rain! Time to curl up under a cozy blanket and enjoy a warm bowl of soup. This week’s pick? A classic creamy celery soup.
Like cabbage, celery is an oft neglected vegetable, prized for its place in a mirepoix, but rarely the star of the show. Which is silly when you think about it, given how good celery is in soups. (Can you imagine chicken soup without it?) Celery soup, with a supporting cast of some onion, leeks, and a little cream, is utterly delicious, and a great way to warm up on a chilly day.
