Cooking for One

After the doctor, suddenly I feel absolutely terrible about eating the soup I made. I feel like I'm stealing Wife's medicine. Weird, I know but that's so she can get through Lap-bandy things easier. So I cooked just for myself. Another steak was my dinner. They were little, in a pack of three and cost 3 bucks. They were little. But the big thing I noticed was for one of my side dishes. I chopped up one carrot, since I figured that's all I needed. I added a tablespoon of butter and a pinch of salt, then browned them in a pan. Next, once again recalling the carrot episode of Good Eats, I decide to braise. Since I had no Ginger ale and hate the stuff anyway, I used...

Cherry cola. Just enough to cover the pan, so it was an eyeball. I slow cooked with the lid on until most of the liquid was down to a syrup then served. Amazingly, it was very very good.
