Lamb Stew


 
 

There's a little Irish Pub in Cleveland that serves up some of the best lamb stew we've ever eaten. Topped with phyllo dough, this thick & hearty shepherd's pie packs a punch when it comes to a fulfilling flavor. Now most of the time, I'm not this gutsy but here it is. Check out my take on trying to re-create this delicious dish....


 
Salt, pepper, rosemary, & dash of parsley

 
Seasonal veggies - zucchini & tomatoes, (ahem...out of my garden....)
potatoes, onions & carrots
 

 
1 pound and a half of cubed lamb, lightly fried in olive oil

 
After your meat has cooked thru, add chicken stock, veggies, & seasoning.
 
 
Cover & cook for 3 hours on a low flame. What could be easier than that?
This is so incredibly tasty, you just gotta try it! It would be perfect for your crock pot too.
My better half and picky eaters couldn't get enough. Taste & aroma, it's perfect for those
inevitable cold weather days that are bound our way. 
 

 
On another note...it wasn't like the Irish Pub's. A little close....but not exactly there
And I guess that's okay, (because next time, I'll enjoy it that much more.)
 
To attempting Irish stews!

The Ogden Cami ~ A Review

Hello friends! I hope you all had a wonderful February and a great start to March! Spring is right around the corner and I'm counting down to daylight savings on March 10th! Hooray for longer sunshine! Lately, I've been longing to go back to stitching up clothes. And... I ended up finding the cutest pattern to get me back in the groove at Hawthorne Threads . The Ogden Cami by True Bias Patterns is perfect and quite simple! I started off by making a test run with some red, light-weight fabric, figuring if this comes out good, I'll have 2 tops! And guess what? It came out awesome! Making a practice piece was a great idea. It's always recommended and there are so many reasons why. In the instructional booklet, I wrote myself little notes.  ~ cut the fabric 1/4" larger at the sides so I can use a serger. This will allow me to have finished ends and still a good seam allowance.  ~ cut the straps 1/2" larger, so the ...

January.... you're almost done!

Hello friends!  I feel like it's been forever since my last post. I suppose some might even say I've been spending nearly all my time on the forefront of creative madness along with trying to continue healing. Holy smokes! Chemo and radiation will change a person forever. I'm continuing my healing journey, and staying hopeful that I'll remain in the 'clear' for a long time. It's odd, the way you feel, when everything you've gotten accustomed to: the running around, working day to day, rushing here and rushing there.... how quickly it changes when it's no longer a necessity. Yes, I am extremely thankful that my spouse supports and pushes for my healing time, omitting nurse life as it was, but like I told my girlfriend the other day, "how many craft projects can a girl possibly do?" ..... Well let me just tell you..... A LOT! Today's post will revisit some Instagram pics, (in case you don't follow along) with some of my most recent...

What is musmula?

Look at these beauties. Finally, I find an answer to this question! The translation for the Turkish, Mediterranean fruit called 'musmula' is 'medlar'.  This exotic fruit that's a cross between a pear and a hawthorn is very unique and tasty. I owe great thanks to my grandfather for grafting this beauty in my yard. Sadly, I don't have any recipes regarding the medlar. But I have read that it is great for making preserves and jelly's. This is a tasty fall fruit that can only ripen after the first frost. I should really move them to a dry shelf until the pulp softens. Then, they're the best!
