I just bought my first chicken. This morning it was enjoying its free-range village life and now, at 10am, it is waiting in the refrigerator for me to cook it into soup. I am not sure how I feel about that short process I just know that I am very relieved that the feathers and head did not come with it.
Yesterday I bought three kilos (6.6lbs) of tomatoes from the bazar (for a 1USD). This weekend I am planning to make tomato soup for some ladies who will be coming over to my apartment on Monday- the first dinner get-together at my apartment! With the left over tomatoes and other vegetables that I have purchased I am going to make vegetable stock (also needed for the tomato soup).
Later this weekend I will post the results of my cooking endeavors with some pictures of of the food and possibly the bazar and different areas around town! For now, I will post a picture of my new washing machine! I love it and it has made my life so much easier and comfortable here in Ukraine. Unfortunately the only place where it could work is about a foot in front of my kitchen sink. Yes, I can still wash dishes, its just a tight squeeze! The gray tube in the sink is the drainage tube and I am sad to admit that one time I forgot to put the tube into the sink so the floor got an unexpected cleaning!
