Thanks, Dee, and same to you. Ideal October weather, so I enjoyed a nice 6-mile walk this afternoon.
Funny you should ask about meals. I'm an old farm boy who still thinks "Sunday dinner" is the noon meal, and that's usually pretty light for me at this stage of my life. Today I had a little chunk of whole wheat pita bread with a thin slice of ham and a small slice of extra sharp cheddar inside, and I had 2/3 of a Honey Crisp apple with another slice of extra sharp cheddar. I spent quite a bit of the morning chopping up celery, onions, and 1.5 lbs. of stew beef, and dumped it all in a crock pot. Then I added one can each of chick peas, red kidney beans, black-eyed peas, pinto beans, and white kidney beans, and had it simmering at about 250˚ from 11am until 6pm. I served a scoop of it over some broccoli, carrots, and corn for supper. The contents of the crock pot will probably be a component of meals for me for at least a week!
Sounds delicious . That's quite the description .
