Oh, The Weather Outside Is Frightful

If you're like me, you're hiding out from the first big snow storm of the season.

If you're not and just happen to live outside of the storm area... lucky you.

I am typing this on my semi new tablet, a Samsung Thrive which I am really liking. Watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 while my dad makes up a big pot of macaroni soup.

Stay off the roads if you can, and watch out for falling branches.

With all this stay in time, maybe I'll finally get around to finishing posts!

For the Rain

It’s cold and dreary, and the rain doesn’t look like it will let up any time soon. Time to make some soup.



Vegetarian arroz caldo. Normally the fried tofu is used for a topping, but I used it instead as the “meat” of this soup. I need to work on the frying part, as it was a bit too oily for my tastes. But overall, this was pretty good. M and I were fighting over the last of this.

Sautee garlic, onion, ginger. Add rice and cook for a minute or two before adding broth. Bring to a boil and then set heat to low and let simmer until rice is cooked. Add saffron and scallions.Season to taste.
