Peeling and chopping

Knives a wielding and peelers a peeling.  That was this afternoons engagement!

As Jill and I prepare for a day off tomorrow, we worked on preparations for our Tuesday seniors luncheon.  That means St. Patrick’s day stew!

Carrots, potatoes, celery and turnips.  All needed to be cleaned and peeled.  The meat needed to be browned.  And all of that done in three hours.  Not a record time, but not too shabby.

I’ve almost gotten a blister out of it.  Had I listened well, I would have used a different peeler.  Nevertheless, there is a certain satisfaction in a job well done.

Now we just have to wait until Tuesday to see who agrees with us!
