I know I said I was going to do it the other day, but today, I finally got to making beef stew. I put it in this morning. It consisted of potatoes and carrots from our garden, plus canned corn and some fresh mushrooms from the grocery store. It stunk our house up in the best possible way all day long. Loved it!
Elvira and I spent the better part of the day in with the kids. We kept a low profile and just visited and played and snacked and enjoyed the quiet. When the littles went down for a rest in the afternoon, she went to visit with her sister who lives nearby. She arrived in time to help me make biscuits and for Brady to get home so we could all eat together. Dekker fought his supper hard for the first time in a while, but we all came out of it alive and had a good evening. Our upstairs heated up incredibly towards the end of the day so we spent some time downstairs in the cooler temperatures.
Being that we’re all feeling like old farts, we’re already separated for the night! We have a bath running and I believe Elvira is calling her hubby to check in on him. Time for some dessert and Netflix before bedtime!
