(yes, I realise it should technically be week two right now)

Recipe #1 is in the slow-cooker, waiting to be eaten this afternoon. It's "Veal and Rosemary Stew" - and looks rather yummy.



In other news, I'd like to propose a vote of thanks to the inventor of the bandaid, who helped me out once again today, mid-onion chopping.

I already have two scars across my thumb that I use as my "this is why I no longer use Stanley knives" reason; if I ever stop chopping vegies, I'll be able to use the brand new scar on my ring finger as my proof that I should never be allowed to hold sharp things.
