Weeeellllll...... Last week when we went grocery shopping, I didn't supervise James when I asked him to grab a few things for the cart.
So when the time came to get the corned beef set up for the crock pot, I realized he'd gotten PURPLE cabbage instead of the usual green. D'oh!
Well, I'd be darned if I was going to go back to the store for just one thing, so I said bugger it, we'll just do it with the purple. How bad can it be?
Several hours later came up from working in the barn to this:
This had to be by far the ugliest meal I have ever cooked!!
Looked like we'd cooked it in octopus ink!!!!
Tasted just fine, but... geez was that ever a mess to clean up!!! Got a good chuckle out of it too at least!!
