Whew! Being domestic is hard! I had a new recipie for sauted chicken and artichoke hearts I wanted to try out, so I was hoping to just pick up a slightly larger pan and some wooden spoons and be out of there. Oh, no. After getting a Calphalon pan, a new spatula, replacement heads for my razor, and new bathmats, I managed to stagger out of Target having “only” spent $100.

Then it was over to the grocery store to get my ingredients. Ok… first of all, good olive oil is expensive! And don’t get me started about the organic chicken that I bought… $6 a pound instead of $4.

Everything went well after that. Pat made me a cd full o’ Italian songs1 to get in the mood for cooking (the cd was labeled “gravy music”), and I think the dish turned out pretty well. I’ll know for sure today.

Update: It was very, very tasty. Heavy on the garlic, which I like.
