So many nights, I prepare dinner only to find out everyone made other plans without telling me. The most recent debacle involved a SV chuck that had to swim for its life for too many hours and then tried to survive in the fridge.... even Roscoe wasn't interested in the result...
So, yesterday, my wife put some chicken in the crock pot before leaving in the morning. Then she called and said that Rocky's gymnastics banquet was last night - not Thursday as we expected... ooops! So, this time her dinner went in the fridge...
Put it back in the crock today and made some mashed potatoes and some excellent carrots (from Jaxon) to go with the chicken. I normally like to roast or grill my carrots but the recipe from Jaxon looked interesting. I gave it a shot. It was very good and the girls scarfed them down - a perfect thumbs up. Thanks, Jack!
I have to add - I put this plate together and then gave it to my oldest daughter - Emma. She was so pleased and grateful that I made her plate. But then Rocky pointed out it was so I could take a picture... yep I was busted!
