Soup Recipe

7 cups of chicken broth
1.5 cups of dried lentils
1.5 coarse chopped onions, covered in red wine and sea salt, and roasted in the oven
4 chopped carrots
4 small cloves of garlic, pressed and fried until golden brown
1 can of chopped tomatoes
1/4 cup of sweet vermouth
Salt and pepper to taste

Put it all in the crockpot and cook it till supper time.

Garnish with green onions and cheese.

Serve with some good bread (like my latest go at sourdough).

A new record

I just realized that in March I made 115 new posts, up from the previous record of 94 in February. 

Yikes.

Some people blog by like a JDAM--a highly focused, efficient attack that demolishes it's target but leaves the buildings standing next to it unharmed. 

Some people blog like a hand grenade--their words maim the subjects and keep three soldiers out of the war for the price of one.

Me, I blog like a B-52 making a bombing run while mistakenly loaded with rubber chickens.

For those who don't like numbers

The Czar has a graphic up on the federal budget, and how much each party is proposing we cut. It even uses simple, easy to understand rectangles instead of a 7-dimensional diagram, for those of us who aren't multi-dimensional beings like the Gormogons, or our congresspeople.

As Linoge says, "Graphics Matter."

I tried it once before, but it seems like it actually worked today. Maybe a little bit, at least. No black holes yet, though.

Because I was feeling uninventive when I scheduled this post
