Maple Bacon Chicken With Bacon-Mushroom Sauce and Asparagus and Other Stuff Too

Kay, so I got some asparagus. I am not sure how to cook it, but nvm - a new recipe immediately came to mind. 
So get this: some asparagus, some baby potatoes and other whatevers that's garnish.
Chicken breast. Omg it's all coming together. Yes half them breasts if you think they're too thick, season with rosemary and olive oil, wrap in smoked streaky bacon and splash it with a little of proper maple syrup. Oven it. Oven bag it if you think it's going to get too dry.
And now, the sauce: http://www.kayotic.nl/blog/bacon-onion-mushroom-sauce
BAM!
Some cherry tomatoes on the side. And parsley.

Le master chef.

Hi again. Don't oven bag it, or any other kind of bag it for that matter.

Arrange me a camera if you want pictures of what I make.

The Best Soup I've Ever Made.

Chicken breast 400g
Vegetable stock 2 (not sure if necessary)
Red pepper 0,5 - 1
Sweet potato 1 large
Carrot 1 massive or an equivalent
Celery sticks 3
Spinach more than you were planning
Onion 1
Leek they kind of turn into nothing anyway
Optional: Chilli or something that would make it taste sour.

Get your largest pot, and, obviously, start with the chicken. Dice it and into the pot of boiling water it goes. My dad's aunt goes a far as to boiling the chicken for a short period of time and then tossing away the 'bad water', but I just wash 'the death's juice' away under a tap of warm water before cutting it. Then the sweet potato, carrots have to be grated and fried on some oil, maybe even with the onion, but I just cut the onion in a half and in the pot it goes. Celery, pepper, spinach and leek. It cooks pretty fast, except for celery, I think. Uh. Yeah, so don't over-boil it. Better switch the heat off before tossing in spinach and leek. Then let it stay, ideally, for 40 minutes. God, don't you know how to boil a soup?

I really like it served with a spoonful of sour-cream or creme fraiche. I think soy sauce also works with it. What doesn't it work with?

Crepe rolls

Crepes filled with: ...

Some oil, a can of chopped tomatoes with herbs, plenty of spinach, 5-6 eggs and soy sauce. This has to go in a fry-pan and be stirred occasionally. Wen it's almost cooked, extract the excess water and make wraps with the product and some grated cheese (optional - wasabi). Fry the wraps on some butter until golden or crispy and serve, possibly with soured cream/creme fraiche or Japanese mayo 'Kewpie'.
