Mama Kat's workshop(I am overdue!)



Ok, so I am late doing the writers workshop but hey, its been awhile so I get some credit right?

Well, I decided to do the "Whats for dinner" because I love cooking. Sundays are usually the comfort food day when I'm not being lazy. Today I made:

BEEF STEW!

Typical lazy Sunday dinner. I haven't made this in a long time so I called my mom to refresh my mind. She tells me that since my grandpa and dad love her recipe that I should make it like hers...well, my dad and grandpa eat just about everything so I kinda just recreate it and redo it in my way...I usually always do!

I coat the stew meat in flour and sear it in olive oil on the stove. While that is cooking I get my crock pot and put in carrots, potatoes, Lipton's Onion soup mix, can of Italian tomatoes, quart of water, salt, pepper, bit of sugar and then the meat goes in. It cooks in the crock pot for about 6 hours on low. I put the kids to bed for a nap and then I retreat to the bed and take a well deserved nap. I can smell it coming up the stairs after my 3 hour nap today and I am dying to dig in! I then go down and tear up some day old bread to make it a bit more stewy and it is oh-so-yummy!

So that is what we will have for dinner tomorrow. I made a lot because soldier boy's friend was supposed to come over but he was too tired from last night playing XBox with soldier boy til 2 a.m. so he slept most of the day! Oh well, more for us!
