"chicken" "macaroni" soup


okay, that's too much quotation marks in one title, hahaha. but, for the curious, it's a soup out of a chicken macaroni soup recipe but, instead, using bacon and rotini. so, technically, this should be called bacon rotini soup :D

anyway, formalities with the name aside, the very simple recipe is as follows:

Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups elbow macaroni → like i said, i used rotini
  • 1/2 can evaporated milk
  • 1 small can mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 carrot, diced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • chicken/bacon/ham
  • 1/2 white onion, diced
  • butter
  • salt & pepper to taste
Cooking Instructions
  • Cook meat beforehand and shred.
  • Heat butter and saute onions and carrots.
  • Add mushrooms and cook for 5 min.
  • Add meat and cook for a few minutes.
  • Add chicken broth and bring to boil.
  • Add pasta and cook for 15 minutes.
  • Add milk, cook until it has boiled.
  • Season with salt and pepper as needed (mine tasted fine during this step, i think because of the chicken broth, so i didn't have to season further)
  • Enjoy!

tastes like heaven, pwomise.

to do: ちっぽけな愛のうた

dedicated to someone i shouldn't be dedicating anything to. haha. sigh.

ちっぽけな愛のうた
小枝理子 & 小笠原秋

いきなり歌い出したり
いきなりキスをしたり
キミにはたくさん
「ごめんね」って
言わなくちゃね

失くしちゃうのが怖くて
嘘ばっかついてしまうボクだけど
でもねキミの前では
本当の自分でいたかったんだ

ボクの存在が
キミの光に影を
落としてしまうとしても
キミの存在は
誰かを照らし
続けていてほしいんだ
ボクがいても
ボクがいなくても
キミはここで輝いて

もっと一緒に笑ったり
もっと泣いたりすれば良かったね
素直な想いに
いまさら気づいているんだ

いつもキミを思っているよ
そこかしこに探しているよ
キミのその声が聴きたいな
今すぐここで

キミの笑顔が
ボクを暗闇から
連れ出してくれたんだ
でもボクの横顔は
キミの笑顔曇らせてしまうんだ
キミがいても
キミがいなくても
ボクはここにいられない

手のひらに掴んだ夢を
今は追い続けていこう
一人でもきっと
越えてゆける
たとえ今は
現実に
縛られて息苦しくても
夜明けは
たしかにやってくる

ボクのこの歌が
キミの背中を
そっと押してくれるといいな
伝えたいこと
何一つ伝えられないボクだから

キミの笑顔が
ボクを暗闇から
連れ出してくれたんだ
いつかボクの笑顔が
キミの笑顔とシンクロするといいな
キミとボクが出会えたこの奇跡
心から感謝しているよ

いつかこの歌キミに届くかな
ちっぽけな愛のうた
