a plague descended upon us. plus grocery shop and a good chicken recipe

 The day I last posted, The Boy woke up with a cold, and immediately gave it to everyone in the house.  He recovered 3 days later, and the rest of us were sick - SICK - for the remainder of the month.  Meanwhile, work was chaotic and every day felt worse than the day before.

I don't know if I have ever been so happy to see a month come to an end as I was for October. 

 And now it is November, and I am feeling ok about the last 2 months of the year.  So far.

I made 2 pumpkin treats in October - cookies and a loaf.  They were both good.

 I made some apple fritter cookies which were fine, but nobody loved them.  We never got to Davidsons Orchard or Desert Hills, and I missed the rest of the Wednesday and Saturday farmers markets downtown.  I am determined to check out the winter market though, soon.

On Saturday we headed out just before noon to Costco, Walmart and the dollar store to get some groceries and baking supplies for a baking fundraiser I was contributing to.

 chocolate chips, ribs, balsamic, rice crispies, dumplings, croissants, brussel sprouts, rotisserie chicken, shallots, toque, food storage containers

$159

 

 We spent $98 at walmart on groceries and toiletries, and then stopped at the dollar store to pick up some baggies to package up the treats in.

 For dinner I used about half the roto chicken to make Chicken Pot Pie Orzo - i believe i found the recipe on tick tok.  Saute diced onion, carrots and celery in butter and oil until softened.  Season with salt and pepper.  Stir in some flour and cook for 2 minutes.  Add a couple of cups of chicken broth and whisk until smooth and thickened.  Whisk in some cream, chopped cooked chicken, and cooked orzo.  Taste and season further if needed.
