I thought about what to have for supper. Sometimes all I want for supper is a bowl of cereal, but sometimes I'm in the mood to really cook. Tonight was one of those nights. I mixed up some dough to make some bread, and got one of our homegrown chickens out of the freezer. Then I got out the pasta machine.
The results of my handiwork....a nice bowl of chicken noodle soup, with homemade stock, homemade noodles, and homegrown chicken. Plus, fresh baked bread hot out of the oven.
Sometimes it's nice when I get the house all to myself. Well, technically I wasn't alone, but David was sleeping so I might as well have been. I figured out how to get the internet up on the Wii, so I could surf the net and catch up on some blog reading while I was waiting for bread to rise.
It was a nice fall night, and hopefully there will be more like it (well, except for the sick husband) this winter.

Poor David :( I hope he feels better.
Wow! How did you make such an incredible meal after working all day? How did you thaw the chicken so fast? I'm so impressed. It looks delicious! :)
I'm not sure how or why I had the energy after working. LOL. The chicken was the only one I actually parted out, so it was pretty quick to thaw. I stuck it in the microwave on defrost while I did the bread dough. :-)
Dinner looks warm and yummy Katie :)
What a great evening!!! I am totally amazed that you could make homemade bread, homemade noodles, and a great chicken soup! I wish I could have flown up there and joined you for dinner! Just lovely Katie!! Love you, Momma
That awesome homemade chicken soup ought to make your sweetie feel better. The bread looks so good!
Fresh chickens make the best soup. I know he enjoyed it when he woke up. Hope he is feeling better. The bread looks wonderful too.
Wow,you are amazing. Bread and noodles in the same night. I want to make my own noodles. Do you have a tutorial on that or know where I can find one? Keep up the good work. I just found your blog and can't stop reading. Sandra
