well i had some chicken stock in the fridge nicely sealed in a jar and i was like yeah, i’m gonna make soup from this. i thought, oh, it’s been in there a while, though. so i opened it and sniffed it, and it seemed… okay. i dumped it into a saucepan and brought it up to a boil, and all seemed okay, but after it had boiled for a minute I was like… that doesn’t smell right. Dude, in the midst of washing dishes, was like, no, that doesn’t smell right.

So I put the saucepan outside and rummaged through the freezer and instead, made fried rice with uh that bright red chinese sausage, and carrots and celery and onion, and steamed some frozen bao left over from last time we went to Asia Mart, and Dude improvised some dipping sauce from a jar of plum butter and some of the Happy Lady sauce from the little Asian supermarket down on the West Side near the pho place, and it was in general probably a better dinner than the soup would’ve been anyway, and now I’ve halfway cleaned out the fridge and freezer, so. Good for me, I suppose.

Now I gotta remember to retrieve that saucepan and dump the stock out. Alas! It was the good homemade kind, but I have more in the freezer. And I’ve got pierogies and bratwurst defrosting for tomorrow night.
