Last One I Swear.

Binge posting!
Okay, so i know that my last hinting comment about posting my meals for this week has just completely consumed your curiosity. I know, right? Ever since I mentioned it, two hours ago, you've just been tying yourself up in KNOTS wondering what I have up my sleeve...

Sooooo, here it is, folks!

Tonight, I made Lemon Infused Lentil Soup.
It was, unfortunately, gross.
I blame the fennel. I have actually made this soup before, sometime in September, when I didn't actually know what fennel was so I skipped it in the recipe. The only thing I remember about the experience was that I found it was too lemony. So this time, I decided to nix one of the two lemons and add the fennel. Biiiiig mistake.
Fennel is an awful thing to put into soup, especially when there isn't that second lemon to diffuse the gross.

Here is my stock pot. Look at how leafy and colourful it is! Looks promising....

Upon straining it, I realized just how gross it was. I frantically added a thousand other things, stock, bouillon, cilantro, oregeno.

It masked the bitter fennel taste ever so slightly, but I still had to choke this bowl of soup down. Now I have a huge stock pot of disgusting soup. Siiiigh. So is my life.

What will I make next!?!?!? Here is the pile of groceries I bought today, as a hint!


Eek, now I'm making promises for cooking posts. Whatever have I gotten myself into!?
Good night! (for real this time)
