edenfalling: golden flaming chalice in a double circle (gold chalice)

I tested a bite of the chicken whatever before putting the rest into storage last night. It tasted fine, though I think in retrospect I should perhaps have added a little black pepper to the spice mix. Oh well; I can play around as I reheat each portion.

The bean soup seems to be proceeding well, especially after I dumped a packet of chicken bouillon into the mix to make the broth act more like broth and less like water with lumps in. I suspect the combination of chicken and ham will taste a little peculiar, but peculiar doesn't necessarily equal bad, so whatever.

Tonight's dinner was catfish and broccoli, which doesn't freeze well and therefore has to be eaten within a few days of cooking, but I like fish and broccoli so that is not exactly a sacrifice. I think I have another three meals' worth of fish and two meals' worth of broccoli, so I definitely should make veggie sidedish tomorrow along with the cheesy potato hotdish, and save one portion in the fridge instead of the freezer.

Being a functional adult is hard some days. *sigh*

In other news, I may have mentioned that I agreed to teach RE again after being only a sub last year? Anyway, it turned out that I was most needed as a youth group adviser, so I'm more supervising/facilitating than teaching. Yesterday we held a teacher ingathering session to explain how things will work this year without an official DRE. (Our old DRE resigned in June; I don't remember if I mentioned that here.) Today was the first day of RE for the season, which mostly functioned as a 'get to know you' session. Next week we will probably do covenanting (aka "how do we want to behave in this group/place") and discuss the kids' goals for the year and how we can collectively make those goals happen.

I remember teaching one of the kids when she was in first or second grade. Now she is a freshman in high school. Where DOES the time go???
