I just made some soup.

Victory! I successfully produced a pot of delicious chicken noodle soup. Making soup has always vexed me - I've never done it well. I can do a decent vegetarian chili in a crockpot, but that was about it.

Until now.

Mmmmm... I grilled the chicken. I sautee'd the onions, celery, and garlic. I mixed together the carrots and egg noodles and broth. A dash a basil. A pinch of oregano. A bowlful of heaven.

Damn skippy.
