Another Favorite

If you haven't tried Ina's beef stew recipe you are missing out. Time consuming? Yes. Will you make a big mess of your kitchen? Yes. Will your husband fall in love with you all over again? Yes.

This is one of the Mister's favorites. Goes well with a long weekend and a snowstorm.

School

School is really gearing up--assignments are looming and deadlines are fast approaching. I have made some resolutions to get me through to the first week of December:

• Enjoy the evenings off, like next weekend, when we have tickets to the Symphony.
• Run 3 miles at least twice a week.
• Cook a nice dinner every Sunday night so that a) we have food to eat, which is really becoming an issue and b) to connect with the Mister.

I have an assignment due at midnight. Better get back to it.
