Running with the Devil

This was a deconstucted chicken and zucchini dish that my mom used to do.  Mainly it's reminder that corn and summer squash are amazing in winter.  I browned the chicken first then put it in the oven with corn, tomatoes, stock, zucchini, garlic and onions.  It's best over Mexican rice.

I literally ran to the migraine doctor on this day because she always fills up and you can't be late or they will berate you in front of the other head sufferers.  I needed her, the headaches have been chronic again.  But I won't forget the faces I passed on the street that day looking back at me. What a movie type scene, running through the Brooklyn Downtown crowds, melting snow on the ground, saying excuse me and half touching people as to not run into them while they're carrying their holiday booty.  Darting left and right, I realized it was great to know I am able to run when pressed for an extended period, about 7 blocks.  I'm no Tom Cruise, but the old, if you don't use it you lose it scare does happen with these types of skills.  Somewhere along the road I lost my ability to really sprint fast before my bike knees says um, no that's not gonna happen.  You don't get a notice, it just goes away so it's good to take it out for a road test from time to time.

Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone at home?
