R☆ came over last night for chicken and Doctor Who. Last time I made a chicken for him, it turned out blackened and undercooked. It’s nice to know that some things never change. I tried a new recipe for roasting a whole bird out of Anthony Bourdain’s Les Halles Cookbook. I should not attempt to roast whole birds. It’s never as good as pan-roasting.

I hope you’re not sick, R☆. I’m sorry.
