oh hey!

i almost kept my word!

ok so this week i had a long, tiresome ADVENTURE with a BEEF ROAST. first, i made it all roast-like...long and slow with cremini mushrooms and onions and carrots yawn. mashed potatoes too because i was feeling sad and wanted their creamy buttery comfort. ew!


(will work on 'food styling' in the future. not! i'll leave it to the pros).

then i used the leftover beef and made a beef/vegetable yawn soup. no hawt pixx ok?

THEN i 'made the soup into a pot pie'


(hint: click to see flaky pastry and other pretty things up close!)

...basically just simmered it down more (does anyone remember madtv?), added more veggies (onion, mushroom, carrot, corn)...more spice so it was less boring...the combo of spices ended up tasting like HP sauce...neat!

i've been eating a lot of heavy stuff lately and like i am 3 people not one...tomorrow is going to be salad day! WOO! my winter cooking phase is through and im going to pretend it's summer. or something.
STAY TUNED.

ps: listening to dog day i forgot about them for a bit. listen to 'wait it out' please!
