...Dinner and a Movie...11.15...

...I made a kind of vegan 'hamburger' stew for dinner...
...carrots, celery, potatoes vegan broth...cooked and thickened...with some thyme and bay leaf...then I browned a couple of veggie burgers in Earth Balance and added them whole to the broth...I didn't want them to just fall apart and crumble but keep some texture...
...it was really yummy...comfort food...with some Grandma's mashed, Brussels sprouts (that my sweet sissie left with us before she left on her boat...she cleaned out her freezer)...and come of my sweet M.I.L.'s sweet corn...she brought several pints for our pre-Thanksgiving meal...and there was a lot leftover...

...the stew was really good...and warming...it's been unseasonably cool and windy here...we had lows in the 20's (-5° C)...we don't usually see temps that low until January or February...

...and the movie was Becoming Astrid...I really enjoyed it...it was really good...and subtitled...so not sure the Man enjoyed it very much...it's a story about some people...a beloved author remembers herself as a young single mother struggling to keep and raise her young son... ...what have you been watching lately?...

~Have a lovely day!

  1. That stew does look comforting!!! I finished the Poldark series finally (alone since Duane refused to watch it). I found that it was hard to find time away from Duane!! Good problem.

  2. Funny; i made a stew just like that in the crock pot a couple of days ago! I had to stay outside for hours and it was freezing so i put all this in the crock put before. It was sooooooo good to nace a super hot and comforting dish!

    Your movie seems good; i'll put it on my list.

      ...it is funny how often we make the same things...and the crock pot is a brilliant idea...
