Today, I woke up with no plans at all and a borrowed car.

I traded a few minutes in the car and some money for a bunch of ingredients, and then I brought it all home and:

* baked four squashes
* roasted two chickens
* cooked gobs of delicious mushrooms goodness
* took apart the chicken carcasses and turned them into
* chicken stock
* two pumpkin pies
* a duck

In a little while, I'll convert the stock and chicken bits into soup, eat some duck, and then return the borrowed car.

Do I really have to go to work tomorrow? I would so love to stay home and come up with a whole 'nother batch of kitchen chaos.

I'm impressed - it must take a lot of skill to turn chicken carcasses into a duck. ;->

As it happens I made mushroom goodness today also, a mushroom-onion custard-ish pie. It was meant to go to the volunteers but the tiny bit of leftover was so tasty I was seriously tempted to make them something else.

Not to mention the Pumpkin pie! I thought the same thing and it made me smile.

KITCHEN CHAOS...FOR THE WIN!

I was more impressed with the two pumpkin pies, myself. :-)

Xactly. Sounds like foodie alchemy to me :)
