Getting in Touch with my Heritage
Oct. 3rd, 2006 06:46 pmFor some reason, I felt the need to make Irish Stew. Now bear in mind this is not actually something I have ever attempted before. So I plugged myself into my handi-dandi internet and typed in Irish Stew recipie. Of course being me, I spelled it wrong so then I got "did you mean..." I clicked yes and got....mutton stew recipies. Um no. Not even no but HELL NO! So I added the word "beef" to the search. This got me something like 7 million hits so I started going through them. Typical of the Irish the first 8 I looked at required Guinness. Now I have nothing against beer, although I don't particularly like it and I know all the alcohol gets cooked out but I didn't feel like going to the liquor store. So I kept searching.
Finally I found this one:
( Read what one I used and how I changed it )
I think I may try one of the Guinness stews the next time. I really liked this one, am waiting for other opinions on it, but it makes a lot. I would also recommend this for a weekend or day off dinner because it takes a long time to make (over 3 hours).
Other than that, I took my Gramma to the doctor and pharmacy today, then ran some errands myself. Have to call work back and let the house supervisor know what day I can go to Sparta. Let's see what day am I free?
