Sunset with planes

I took this on the eleventh. One week ago today. The sky was mostly clear in the afternoon with a few clouds on the horizons. As the sun went down, it glinted off the clouds in the west. Two jets were making their way northward at the time.

A February sunset.

Thursday's lunch was very tasty. We had bought a pair of chickens a couple of weeks ago. They were on sale, two birds for €2.10/kilo. We cut them apart and made chicken adobo with the thighs and drumsticks. The wings went into the freezer for the next time we make wings. We kept the breasts on the carcasses and froze those separately.

So, on Thursday we thawed one of the carcasses with the breasts on, seasoned and roasted it in the oven. Along side the roasted chicken breasts were some collard greens from our freezer and a pot of polenta. Everything was amazingly good and it all went together very well. The little bits of chicken that are left on the carcass will be picked off for Callie. We didn't take any pictures at all.

The thing is that this is the kind of impromptu cooking that we (and when I say "we" I mean mostly Ken) do all the time. When the pantry and the freezer are well-stocked, we don't need a lot of advance preparation to come up with a great lunch.
