Tonight I'm making chicken lo mein. I whipped up an impromptu version of it a week ago and Signora V. gave it an enthusiastic thumbs-up. ("Best in the city!")
Got some proper noodles this time at a local Asian market. Last time I used some udon noodles I had frozen last May, and it turned out well, but this time I'm using better noodles, less stock, fresh snow peas and - honestly - I'm not sure what else. Oh yeah, fresh ginger and scallions. Signora V. also likes peas. But honestly, lo mein can contain just about anything!
Anyway, here's a photo of my previous attempt. Good as it was (and it was!), it will be better this time.

"For me, there's only my wife..."
"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"
"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"
"It was a grass harp... And we listened."
"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"
