One of the things I miss most about Earl is that he was a phenomenal cook. He had a real talent for it, never using a recipe just throwing this or that together to make a heavenly meal. My appetite has been off since he's been gone, but this afternoon I got a hankering for homemade chicken soup. So I simmered 3 thigh leg quarters for about 2 hours, then I dug in the pantry and freezer for veggies and what not. All I had was a can of veg-all, about a 1/4 pound of brown rice, and a handful of frozen broccoli. Well I let all that cook together for about half an hour while I deboned and cubed the chicken, which I added to the mix. Earl would be real proud of my soup. It's true what they say you know. Chicken soup is a cure-all for everything.
