A chilly April evening

I was going to go for a little bike ride after work – but the wind was cold and sharp and it looked like rain, so I decided against it.

Years ago, I did an April is the cruellest month supper – and it was a warm day, almost too hot for the pork and potatoes I served.

I had another of the Passover chicken and avocado sandwiches on wheat toast with Siracha mayonnaise that I also had yesterday for dinner. The Passover chicken is scallopini – small pieces of boneless breast that I pounded and then dredged in matzoh meal and fried in olive oil. I froze some and left  some out, thinking I’d make a kind of chicken Parmesan – but I might have to have another sandwich tomorrow. Especially because I’m working the polls, 1:00 PM to close. I might be able to eat a hot breakfast at home – I have an early meeting, after which I can come back, eat, and work a bit before going to my assigned polling place. Which is the same one where I vote, so I can walk there. Means a cold, packed, supper, though. Hmm, wonder if I should make some cookies or bars to take.

I think it will be Marion Cunningham’s oatmeal cookies.

Oatmeal cookies - these are actually vegan cookies, from a School Woods event for a local vegan group in 2009, but the Cunningham ones will look similar

And now it’s really raining – glad I’m inside.
