By Request



JD put in a request for my hamburger stew. He wanted homemade bread but I just couldn't fit it into my schedule. With his birthday Friday I thought "What the heck" and made a HUGE kettle of it. I lost track of how many bowls he had... *** hangs head in shame *** I ate *three* bowls.

Hamburger, home canned tomato juice, potatoes, onions, carrots, celery, and peas all simmered for the afternoon.



All tuckered out from playing "puppy" out in the snow Ruby just laid quietly while we ate dinner thinking we might drop something from the table. JD eats like Henry VIII tossing food to MUTTs Inc.

That's generally on the weekend when I have more time. I just got a new biscuit recipe you'll love.

Cold weather and hamburger stew go well together. I think I will make some on the weekend when the high temp is going to be around 0F. You can tell how appreciative JD is of your culinary skills by how much he eats.

Sorry to hear about the chemo sick; it must be tough, but soldier on my friend. I hope you find a big log to put in the de-ashed fireplace tonight.

I've sorted out the scrap crap so it gets burned first.
