Dude. February completely disappeared.
that's not okay.
We've been battling the flu. This was the first cold/flu season in about 4 years where we opted to not get a flu shot (for no reason, really----we weren't reminded by the pediatrician, and were apparently not in the high-risk group), and so I can anecdotally declare that flu shots work.
~~~Quickly ducking so I don't get hit with a squashed tomato from the flu-shots-are-evil people~~~
So anyway, that's where I've been. Tending to sick, cranky people.
I don't have a new recipe today, but have instead rounded up all of the 2008 Flashbacks that I wasn't able to send out. Fingers crossed that the snot, fevers, and all-around-ickiness (you don't want to know, trust me...) stays away next week and everyone is back at school/work and we get back to normal around here.
Normal. HA!

February 26 Chicken Parmesan (made this two weeks ago, delicious, then used the leftovers in Pasta Fagioli)
February 27 Hearty Ox Tail Stew (mmm.)

So there you go! Hopefully that'll keep you busy for a while. If you're reading this in a reader, or through email, you may not have had the opportunity to see that I've put together a Table of Contents that you might find useful.
I've got a new post up on Totally Together Journal where I share my new personal motto:
REAL LIFE, NOT A MAGAZINE
It's got kind of a nice ring to it, don't you think? :-)
What's in your pot today? I dug through the freezer bin and threw together a beef stew, since we're housebound and I can't get to the store. I loosely followed my own recipe, but since there as many versions of beef stew as there are missing Barbie shoes, I also tossed in some leftover mixed vegetables and garlic brown rice couscous.
Happy March! Happy Slow Cooking!
