chopping onions


And yes, of course they make my eyes prickle and smart.  Ten months into lockdown, I was getting So Fed Up with my/our own cooking - so I've been branching out more into cookbooks, but then, of course, one finds one's missing a crucial ingredient, like white miso paste, or sumac, and has to wait until Amazon coughs it up.  It's worse if and when one finds one's missing an onion, of course, or a lemon or two.  We are about to run out of lemons - a lot went into yesterday's chicken dish with lemons and za'atar.   Today was roast cauliflower, and Turkish-style lentils.  But ... three meals a day, even if we'll often self-forage for one of them (in the fridge, not further afield) - ah, it's a treadmill of a routine, sometimes.
