It wasn't last week when it rained for two and a half days and our apartment filled with water. It wasn't as bad as it could have been, but it's the reason for my absence. It was like moving, but we didn't leave the apartment. The living room was in the kitchen for about five days and we're still camping on our air mattress in the bedroom.
Needless to say, I haven't been able to be in the kitchen much. We're finally getting things back to normal.
Before this whole ordeal though, I made chicken stock (with the intention of making matzoh ball soup which still needs some tweaking).
