It's raining here and you won't hear me bitch about it at all, we need it. I've spent the last two nights alone since my Sweet Wife has spent that time with her mother at the Mayo Clinic. So far she seems fine. Time will tell. She underwent several hours of brain surgery yesterday.
After my morning coffee I decided to make a pork roast Irish stew. Prep time was about forty-five minutes and now my house smells great. As a matter of fact my fingers now smell of fresh rosemary cut from my herb garden.
I hope all of you have a pleasant and restful Sunday. See you tomorrow.
Here's my roast settled in for a long day of simmering.

It looks good. I have not figured out what I am going to cook for supper yet. It's to hot to cook outside, I don't want to heat the house up to much, I feel lazy today, so I guess that just leaves baked potatoes.
ReplyDeleteI hope everything went well with the surgery.
No invite?
ReplyDeleteJust looking at that made me really hungry. Glad things are progressing positively on the home front.
ReplyDeleteThe stew looks good but RAIN? That sounds heavenly ...wish we had some!
ReplyDeleteThe rain was nice. It's quit now but I'm sure more will move in this afternoon. We will have fresh asparagus and cornbread too.
ReplyDeleteIt would seem posting comments using my Blackberry I've lost a reply to MDR, Joe, and Arsenius...so, let's do 'er again.
ReplyDeleteMDR, thanks, everything so far has gone well with the surgery. It's hot here too but with the rain this morning and the a/c it's nice inside and I don't mind cooking.
Joe, an invitation stands for the future, but with the chance we'll be helping with the MIL this evening it'll wouldn't work. Tell the sweet Glock Girl I await her new blog. You guys are good friends.
Arsenius, thank you for the kind words. The stew I'm sure will be good. I put lots of effort into my cooking. Also will have fresh asparagus and homemade cornbread, baked the old way in a seasoned cast iron skillet.
I came back to see if there was any of that stew left!
ReplyDeleteThere will be and you're more than welcome to run down and get a bite....we don't eat until 1800, so hurry. It sure smells good in the house.
ReplyDeleteI made chicken n dumplins...but that looks good too.
ReplyDeleteGlock Mom, my stew will put hair on your chest....
ReplyDeleteOur spring and summer has been nothing but cool, wet, and windy here in the Pacific NW. Garden is off to a slow start. Your stew looks yummy. What did you put in with it?

Rose, thanks for stopping by and I understand your weather very well. I, once upon a time, lived up in your neck of the woods. Little place in Western Washington.
ReplyDeleteAs far as the stew's ingredients, I'll make it a post devoted to you. Stand by.
