Soup weather

 

I'm not a gnocchi connoisseur, but these packaged ones are edible when you don't have time to make the real McCoy. 

I ran across a recipe in the NYT for a quick chicken soup made with gnocchi instead of noodles, and we threw a pot together yesterday with diced vegetables and leftover roast chicken from the freezer.

Tasty and hearty, although I don't know how well those gummy things freeze. We'll find out on Sunday when we come home from the Symphony and have a late supper. At least it will seem late, going off daylight savings time. 

Why? Changing clocks is tremendously unpopular around the world, but about 70 countries still do it. The ones near the Equator don't bother because the hours of light and dark are almost equal-- a lovely and healthful way to live. 

On the news this morning, I saw our Democratic Senator Patty Murray was teaming with Republican Senator Marco Rubio to pass a law and finally end it. A example of some useful bipartisan cooperation for a change.  

Have a good weekend wherever you are.
