I’ve been feeling a little crabby and wondering if it’s because Mercury is going retrograde in a few days (yes, thanks to my Gemini sun being ruled by Mercury, I really do feel the retrograde energy).
On the other hand, it could be that I need more downtime but can never seem to figure out when or how to fit it in. Which makes me seriously cranky.
Ah well, I’m hoping an early night and a good rest will help me rise above my cranky crabbiness by tomorrow.
Or some broccoli. Master’s recipe!
BRAISED BROCCOLI
(Spinach or Swiss Chard may be used instead of broccoli).
Shred 1/4 cup each of carrot and onion and put in baking dish. Broccoli – if fresh from your garden – should stand for at least 2 hour in cold salted water to draw out insects, if any. Wash broccoli, cut into fairly small pieces and place on top of the other vegetables. Cover with well-seasoned vegetable stock, cover dish and bake until tender.
