223 Wonderland: November 2011

So last night We had left over pot roast and may I say it was the bomb, not just saying that because i made it but it was really good. I forgot to take pictures but I will give you the recipe so here we go.

Get out your crock pot turn it on high fill it up with hot water.
Get your meat I used Chuck Roast
Season it I used salt, pepper, dell sauce, and worcestershire sauce.
Put your meat into crock pot, pour more dell in.
Let it cook on high all day and that night turn on low, get up the next day and turn back up on high let it cook all day it should be falling apart by now. Next pour out water and add fresh water pour in a little more dell then, Add carrots, potatoes, onions.
Now get a pack of beef stew seasoning mix it in, mix in a can of cream of mushroom soup, add some red pepper to give a little heat let cook till all veggies are soft and then your done ready to eat. hope you enjoy. Eat with Cornbread, crackers, or rolls.

Hi everyone out in blog land, I know it's been a while I have had so much going on and has not had time to get on and blog, but I'm back and today is Veterans Day and I would like to say a big THANK YOU to all the Veterans and service men and women who have served our great country in the past, present. I have so many family members who have served. So today I want to thank my grandfather, my uncle Butch who fought in the Vietnam War and my cousin Phillip who is in Afghanistan as we speak. We love you all. Here is a few links for all our service women and men who have served and are serving. Be blessed.
