Day 248: First of all, you should be watching "Homeland". Yes, Claire Daines is hysterical pretty much all of the time, but it's a perfectly wonderful reaction when you realize that she's also RIGHT pretty much all of the time; it's enough to make you crazy just watching it. Plus, it has some really great reveals, which I will not spoil here yet. Good times.
Secondly, last night I cooked mushrooms with a light butter sauce, and tonight I had no mushrooms. I thought to myself, "Could I cook the same sauce over some delicious chicken thighs?"
It turns out that I can (and you can, too!). Butter, oil, garlic, capers, all as before, but now poured over chicken thighs. Bake at 350 degrees until cooked through on one side, then turn and bake until carmelized on the other side. Pour the drippings over the chicken, and EAT IN FACE.
Oh, also, Downton Abbey:

Not cool, supposed-to-be-uplifting-Christmas-episode (in the American version, episode 7). Not cool at all.
The last shot... I don't even know what we're doing here anymore.
If there is a central tenant to this melodrama, it is clearly: "REPRODUCTION BAD"
Bah. Humbug.
Tomorrow, ADVENTURE!! :)
