Nah, I didn't make this yummilicious rice. Last night when I got home, Gabs had prepared his version of 'arroz con pollo' in a funny kitchen setup that he put together in the terrace at the back of the house. It was so good...it had chunks of onion and green and yellow pepper, and had a slightly asian twist to it. Rotisserie chicken from the supermarket has become our best friend since being kitchenless, and it's a great bargain if you think about it...about $4.85 for a whole, juicy chicken.
I am grateful at this point that Gabs is comfortable cooking in this insanity...because I could never. I need order in my life, I need order when I cook. And, as much as I love food, if given a choice between total order or a delicious meal, I would go for total order. No, I'd go for food. No...order. No...food. Order? Food? Ok, ok so they're pretty much both up there, but there's nothing like cooking a great meal in a kitchen that's perfectly organized, neat, and clean. I can just imagine all the ingredients set out ready to go, pre-measured preferably. All the utensils clean and shiny, maybe even some music playing in the background...a cold beer or glass of wine on the side for those quick 2 second breaks in between whisks. It's coming back to me soon....I hope.

Amiga, tu cocinando en una cocina caótica? no, la verdad es que es casi, un mal sueño de Halloween... Pero estoy segura que tu estreno de Thanksgiving va ser todo un Blockbuster ! Animo, conciencia Zen Heidi, ya falta poco !
