Today, I am grateful that March is half over.
============================
Sunday--March 15th--Beware the Ides of March. The 45th anniversary of my Mother's death, at age 53.
Monday--March 16th--the 77th anniversary of my parents wedding day.
Today--March 17th, and all I can say is:
=============================
A mid-afternoon snack. Delicious!!
At 4:00, Pearl called me and wanted to know if I wanted to come up for supper with them at 5:30. "SURE!" and up I walked.
She had put the corned beef into the Crock-Pot at 2:00 and set the timer to cook 6 hours. She wondered why 3 1/2 hours later, it was still tough and raw. I didn't want to tell her that she didn't understand her Crock-Pot, so we had delicious cooked cabbage, potatoes, carrots and Italian bread sticks with garlic butter. Corned Beef perhaps tomorrow?
I love her!

Can't you cook corn beef in a crock pot? I know 3 1/2 isn't long enough but six hours should do it, shouldn't it? I had that exact dinner today but the corn beef was tough....tasty but tough. But it made me want some more that was cooked better.
ReplyDeleteYeah, maybe tomorrow. :)

I've never liked corned beef, tough or not!
ReplyDeleteI know you love her, and that's what counts.
ReplyDeletebahaha. Glad you can laugh and go on! And the best thing about today - it's almost time for NCAA games!!!
ReplyDeleteAwwww. Pearl meant well, and I bet you still had a lot of laughs!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that we're so close to Easter.... Jx
