Overall I made 50 things in April.

It didn't feel like a month for ambitious cooking, or really any sort of project. No real plans, just cooking food. It looks like I made a lot of potatoes?

Overall I made 34 things in March.

I meant to continue the project I started in January, to try to make more things in advance so the evenings go more smoothly. I don't think this was a great success - my notes are just that Greek-Style Chicken and Hummus works great as leftovers. That's true, but not the coordinated effort I was hoping for.

Overall I made 28 things in February.

A project that I'd like to begin on: being more deliberate about my cooking so that it takes less time in the evenings. I started a bit of that this month, but I'm going to make this a bigger focus in February. Two successes, particularly the second soup:

• Chicken Braised With Potatoes and Pine Nuts
• Chicken and Rice Soup with Lemon

I'm also still looking for hit recipes for when we have guests over. This months attempt was Grilled Ginger-Lime Chicken Thighs with Harissa; these won't unseat the reigning champs of Greek-Style Chicken Kebabs or Panko Chicken.

My biggest discovery was roasted zucchini. I made this a few more times - immediately, roasted a few days after that, roasted with broccoli and carrots, roasted with broccoli.

Overall I made 46 things in January.

I've been having consistent challenges with my handwritten CSS, especially around scaling it between mobile and desktop. It was a game of wack-a-mole, where I'd get it looking right in one situation, only to find it regressed in the other.

So, I've given up on my handwritten styles, and moved to a CSS framework - specifically, to Tailwind CSS. That meant giving up on some of the styles that I'd crafted (it wasn't worth recreating them), but hopefully buying into that means I don't have to worry about some classes of problems.
