Hellen's Tuesday dinner

Gropius and I took pity on poor Hellen. Derek has a one-year visiting position at Oberlin that has him gone Monday-Weds of every week. And Hellen doesn't cook. At. All. (which is how I know she loves me as my long-lost evil twin)

After we got through with our 5K running group, Hellen and I picked up Gropius from the Rubicon where he was flirting with a table of blondes, including a rather persistent one I nicknamed Bambi (who ironically enough works in the wildlife dept?!). Then we made our way home and cooked dinner: galangal soup with chicken. Very tasty!




The soup had chicken breast, chilli, fresh chinese noodles, galangal, sherry, napa cabbage, and chicken broth. We served it up with a nice Rose from Bonny Doon.
