injured

Ahh, I'm late... 10 hours ago

Happy Birthday, Tangerine_Now! Hope this next year is creative, fun, and full of delicious soup. :)

eeee! 3 days ago

I’m so glad they’re doing this message again! Cause it makes me happy! I don’t think they did it before the New Year last year…did they?

ETA: and I just saw the new tab! LOVE IT!

#5: Lamb Stew 5 days ago

I browned a little over a pound of lean lamb with a chopped onion, then put them in the crockpot with 2 cups Guinness, 1 small can beef broth, a couple of bay leaves, some thyme, 2 diced potatoes, and 4 diced carrots. Left it on low for 11 hours. If I did it again, I’d go with just 1 cup Guinness and a can and a half of the broth, but it was really good anyway.

And now our fridge has two kinds of leftover soups…both of which will taste better heated up again in the next couple of days.
