December 15th rolled slowly through the fair city of Winston-Salem, plodding and cruel in its deeply-chilled wintry wetness, corraling the afternoon into an upper 30s temperature trap, locking me indoors with chains of my own design because I despise the cold. It is still autumn. Soup was my first thought, until I turned instead to the warming spice and sauce of a simple skillet chicken tikka masala. It was a filling and soothing one-bowl meal once dusk had fallen, leaving barely enough room for yet another huge slice of death by chocolate cake.
