I made the mushroom bourguinon.
It was... heavenly. it was perfect. (well.. i dont know what its supposed to taste like because i've never had it before). but it was... so good. i ate it all. and i am painfully full.
there are pictures, but i have no cable to get em off the camera at the moment.
in case you were wondering, it's a kind of stew, featuring portobello mushrooms, red wine, thyme, onions, garlic and carrot that goes on egg noodles. It wasn't as hard as I was expecting, but it did require fairly constant attention. (But much simpler than the traditional beef version, which takes 3 hours of constant attention because you have to actually cook the meat.)
i felt literally drunk with deliciousness afterwards (or maybe that was the wine...)
mmmmmmmmmmmmm.
so good i had to make dessert. which was silly. because I had no room.
but i made mouth melty sugar cookies anyways.
yes indeedy.
i am going to get all fat happy with all this rich and delicious cooking.
life is delicious.
