Quarantine supper tonite... Live from NYC...
Today was a series of unfortunate events... we have a mini fridge that was originally purchased when our son went to college. He didn’t take it to his home and since the pandemic we have used it for Mom’s groceries (I shop for her and bring her groceries to her the next day). It needed defrosting and so today we emptied it and placed it outside on the deck to defrost and drain... first time defrosting a mini fridge...
We took Mom for her flu shot, visited for a bit then came home. Mini fridge looked dry and empty. The hubs carried it into the kitchen and placed it on my cooking mat so I could clean it up... suddenly a couple of gallons of water flowed onto the floor... apparently it has a tray beneath the freezer... who knew??? all the melted ice had accumulated therein. Following clean up... involving lots of cussing and many towels... the fridge is back in its appointed spot... no harm no foul.
Our dinner got completely derailed since it was now well past cooking time... and thus a “clean out the fridge salad” became supper. Leftovers from our Japanese Hibachi takeout... leftover london broil... feta... clementine segments... olives and a robust mustard vinaigrette made for a quick and satisfying supper. Guess I’ll make the spatchcocked chicken tomorrow night...
Taxes anyone? NYTimes article was highly informative and probably irritated The Emperor’s New Clothes a great deal...
How was your day? What’s on your plate? Thoughts?
