It’s dreary and raining here today, even though it’s not very chilly. It’s in the 70’s this afternoon, but it has been drizzling and raining here off and on all day. I already had stew planned for today’s menu, but it worked out really well with the weather. Now that fall and winter are upon us, I’m going to try to make soup once a week. Normally, I will try to make soup on Thursdays, to go along with the homemade bread that I make then also. Nothing like homemade soup with hot bread fresh out of the oven (slathered in butter, of course). But, this week, I’m going to “let” Tim grill me a steak on Thursday. My birthday is Wednesday, but he has to weigh in at the office on his weight loss group on Thursday mornings, so I don’t want to sabotage his hard work by overindulging on Wednesday night. I’ll gladly wait until Thursday to eat a big juicy ribeye 😀
So, we’re having beef stew tonight… can’t wait! We’ll be watching the football game too. We were watching 7th Heaven, but they moved the darn thing to Sunday nights. Can’t watch it then, we have Amazing Race on, and another game too. Football is very important, you know 😆
It hasn’t just drizzled here today; it’s a deluge! That looks good! One of my other meals would have been better than the grilled salmon tonight but I already had it out; it will be done indoors instead!
Great blog. I would love to learn to make great soups to make once a week..
Cool
I love when my husband makes us soup and stew on cold nights. Happy Birthday! (In case I don’t make it back by then)
That stew looks so, so good! I love beef stew, especially the kind that looks like that. Mmmm.
We have the exact same weather here. Rained all day, very dreary, but the temp is 75. It’s supposed to be more of the same tomorrow.
Enjoy the game (and that stew)!
Mmm, that’s some good-looking stew! When the weather turns cooler and dreary, my food thoughts usually turn to my mom’s homemade chili. So spicy it’ll warm you up right quick! 😉
Yum!! We have had dark, cold, rainy weather here all day too, and that stew looks just perfect. I am not generally a big soup person, but I’m always up for beef stew!
What is up with them moving 7th Heaven. They went to all that work of “uncancelling” or “unfinishing” it….and then they go and move it to a different night. Grrrrr.
Happy Birthday again. I hope that Tim gets you some Godiva 🙂
Mmm, that stew looks good! Nothing like stew and hot bread on a cold, rainy day!
Happy Birthday (a day early)!
I made soup last night too! Along with cornbread it was the perfect rainy day meal!
