Homemade Dinner, Wicker Park, Chicago
Last night I had my first homemade meal in my new apartment. I made the barbecue (Sweet Baby Rays!) pork chop and the garlic mashed potatoes were ones that Kristin made and sent home with me the night before when we made dinner at her place. She’s already figured out how to win me over! It occurred to me as I was buying the barbecue sauce at Jewel that I haven’t had barbecue sauce in my fridge for more than 2 years. It’s strange.. all of the ways I’m realizing how lean I lived in New York. Also, I can never buy a pork chop or hear anyone say it without hearing Chris Rock in my head saying “pork chop” in his Chris Rock way. “A pork chop’s your frieeeeend.”
