Good job, rice!

Yay, rice!

Brown rice, in the crockpot, with chicken broth, a clove of garlic, half an onion, a carrot, salt, and pepper. Worked out okay. Was really concerned about the proportion of vegetable to rice, but the veggies cooked down and the rice cooked up and it was all okay in the end. Next time, I'll probably try different broth. This time, the store brand was very very on sale, so I gave that a shot. It was pretty good, but not wonderful. I'm not sure how I feel about the cooked carrot; it's not my favorite, but it's not bad, so for now I'm going to keep including it because it's inexpensive and a vegetable and I'll get used to it. Not sure what other vegetables work with this. I don't like mushrooms, so that's out. I wonder if some sort of legumes would go well with it. Peas probably would. Hmm...

Yesterday was pretty bad, so I'm going to have to be really academically productive for the rest of the night. Boo.
