Word of the Day

Smiddy - The name of a small, annoying, often gnome-like character with the importance and intellectual capacity below that of a small grapefruit. Often picked as a hero's sidekick for their extreme loyalty.

I'm not sure why some people dislike left-overs, often throwing them away rather than re-heating them to enjoy another day. The potato soup that I re-heated today for lunch was even better than when I made it yesterday. Don't get me wrong. At risk of breaking my arm while patting myself on my own back, I made a terrific pot of potato soup. It tasted wonderful yesterday. But, with all the flavors having a chance to expand and blend, the soup tasted even better today. We're having left-over grilled chicken tonight. Sometimes it's just a matter of presentation when it comes to left-overs. I can get three or four different meals out of grilled chicken breasts. I think I'm going to serve tonight's left-over grilled chicken with Spanish rice. When I served it fresh off the grill, I served it with a side salad. I served some of the left-over chicken with a marinara sauce on top of angel hair pasta. No point in lighting up the grill for just one meal.
