February 2025 is over and all I have to show for it are a bunch of photos of flowers!
I did some cooking this month. My husband usually does most of the cooking, but he broke his hand and will be a cast for another 6 weeks.🙄 I tackled a couple of recipes from my cooking bucket list, French Onion Soup from scratch was a labor of love and totally worth the 2 hours of stirring!
I also made one of my favorite Afghani dishes, Aushuk for the first time, it turned out amazing, sorry I didn’t take photos of that dish, next time! 😉
March will be interesting, I’m working on a huge project that will hopefully help me generate some income, fingers crossed everything works out and I can handle the physical work that it will require, more details on that later!😊

Ouch! I cringed when I read about your husband’s broken hand. That’s terrible! Your photos are gorgeous as are your orchids but I think the winner is that French Onion Soup …. one of my favorites! That’s a lot of tears for a bowl of soup but so worth it. Hope hubby heals well!

Thanks Matt, it was awesome, all the chopping and stirring for 2 hours was worth it! A tip if you want to make it, use multiple kinds of onions! 😉

Great photos, as always Tiffany. I love French onion soup, and yours looks delicious. I haven’t made it in years, and was just thinking the other day that I need to make some soon. And good luck with your big project.

Thanks Jeff, I assume you are getting some rain this week too, perfect time for soup! I used a variety of onions this time, red, white, Vadalia, and even shallots, it gave it a really nice balanced flavor! 😉

We got a few sprinkles last night, and have a chance for more Thursday. That’s a great idea to use a variety of onions.

I can’t blame you for not taking photos of the Ashuk you made. For me, banana bread is too yummy to wait for it to cool down. I don’t believe I’ve ever taken a photo of any I’ve made; only of my happy face after the last crumb has been devoured.

Love the vibrant colors of your flowers!! Sorry to hear about your husband’s little accident, hope the time goes quickly for you both! When I had hip surgery I tried to teach my husband to cook… let’s just say that we ended up eating a lot of frozen meals. Lol

Great photos, Tiffany, especially the first 2, plus the soup! Hope your spouse returns to the kitchen soon; my husband does most of our cooking, and it’s easy to get used to just showing up when he says it’s ready. (On the other hand, I wash all the dishes.)
