I’d been browsing through the computer looking for a nice pot roast recipe, and I found one that looked easy enough. I peeled and chopped the vegetables, and then started everything in the best item I ever bought on sale…a heavy duty dutch oven!
Julia Child always said that one must have a Le Creuset Dutch Oven. It’s for making pot roasts, BOEUF BOURGUIGNON, or a delectable slow cooked chicken, and many more recipes.
I broke a tooth on Tuesday, and so first thing on Wednesday morning I called to go in and see my dentist. He’s all booked up until Friday, unless it was an emergency, then I could go in. Something tells me that an exchange of cash would have had to occur in order for me to have gotten an earlier appointment. So, here I sit waiting for the rest of my back left molar to disintegrate!
So here is a quick 13 things on my mind.
- I hate my teeth. If you have small kids or are a challenged floss-er, then get with it and pay attention to your dental hygiene. I had almost no care as a kid, and so this is the result.
- Now that the fall weather is upon us, spice it up with a soup or stew. I have several recipes in my Cooking Section.
- I finally got my laundry done today! Yay! All will be well until Saturday, when I change the sheets again and a whole new weeks worth of laundry will be done.
- I ordered the book, “From Lark Rise to Candleford, The Trilogy”. It seems that the story is semi auto-biographical, so it should be a good read.
- Anneliese is still in heat. It has not been fun around here right now.
- Hubby and I went to see the movie “The Ides or March”. He liked it a bit more than me, but it was a solid story.
- I picked 4 more eggplant today! Guess what is for lunch tomorrow.
- This weeks Pan Am was actually a good one. I wonder, will this show take off? I know bad pun, but I couldn’t resist!
- My mother is very ill. At her age I do not see her getting well again. I will be seeing her in November. But if the call comes, I will go down to my sister’s home and go over to see her. (4 hour drive)
- Thursday will have to be grocery shopping day. I’m starting to run out of things.
- I do have a report to write. It’s another 5 pager.
- Mandy and Matt set the date. May 26th in St. Lucia!
- Now I need to finish my diet and find a wonderful gown.
St. Lucia! Oh I love St. Lucia…what a gorgeous spot for a wedding. Its so lush and tropical. How exciting!
Wonderful news about the Wedding! Sounds like it will be very special!
You’ll need a nice light dress for the heat there. It will be fun shopping! Love YOU, Mel
My mother used to bring us to a dentist named Dr. Petronio. I remember his office manager giving her a hard time about money once. I HATED going there!
Can you email me the pot roast recipe. please?
Sorry about your broken tooth, I hate dentists ! So finally the wedding date is fixed ! My young couple made first the baby and bought a house together now I don’t know when they marry or if they marry ! Honnestly I don’t care anymore, this girl is such a deception !
OMG, the resort in ST. Lucia looks so nice. I wish I could go there on holiday one day.
How do you handle it with the guests? Is it not a problem to get everybody there?
Could you maybe give me some of your pot roast recipes?
