beef stew ingredients prepped. potatoes and carrots are peeled & diced, beef has been browned in a skillet, and onions & shallots have been lightly browned & seasoned. All of these things are in deli containers in the fridge, so tomorrow morning it's just pour on the broth and let it rip
i dunno man i just like to make stuff. cooking's an easy way to do that.
something i have done frequently when i've had friends over is as a group activity we can make some soft pretzels for snackin'
It takes about an hour, start to finish, and everyone gets to roll out and twist at least one pretzel
