I started taking the Christmas decorations down to the garage today. I had been holding off since I tweaked my back. The last thing I needed to do was injure my back again and be laying flat in bed. I decided to move the items in small, light batches very slowly. It was tedious but I didn't hurt myself so I guess it worked.
I also made soup. I made a delicious Potato, white bean and Chard soup. It was supposed to be kale soup but I only had chard. Hey, a green is a green. It was really tasty and I cooked it in the slow cooker. I was a little nervous at hour 3 that the potatoes would not cook all the way but at hour 6 they were cooked thoroughly. I love my slow cooker.
My friend has been trying to get me to buy an Instant Pot. I did a little research and I am not sure if instant pot and vegans are a good match. I looked at the list of items people cook in them: chili, roasts, cheese cake, soup, rice, eggs, yogurt, and whole chicken. Of all these things I would make three and I have a slow cooker to make the chili and soup and a rice cooker to make rice. The one thing I did see that I liked was the vegan mac and cheese. But I am not sure I would buy a machine just to make mac and cheese.
Anyway something to think about. The soup was delicious and will be all week long.
Until tomorrow...
