Chicken With 40 Cloves of Garlic

Today I made a roast chicken with lots and lots of garlic. It's pretty simple, really. A whole chicken, put into a dutch oven, along with three bulbs of garlic broken up, some fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, bay leaves, and something else that I can't remember), and just over a cup of dry white wine. Oh, and rub the poor bird down with some salt and pepper. I over-baked it a little, but it was still fairly tender and tasty. We were smooshing the garlic cloves onto the slices of chicken. Yum.

Eric is putting laundry away, Awyn is snoozing in my arms because she won't sleep otherwise. Sam went to bed around 9. Last night our low temp. was 14 degrees. Brrrrr. It didn't break 60 today, outside or inside the house. We are debating on turning on the furnace tonight. The only problem with that is that we'll have to find all the vents, make sure they aren't blocked, and change the filter on the furnace. We also need to start addressing our Christmas cards and finish our Christmas shopping so we can get it all shipped.
