Is this Thursday?

 Feels like the weekend.  I'm loading boxes of eats to take to Carole's and will be there all day.  Italian beef, home made mac&cheese, pistachio cake and frosting, good cheese, fresh buns. 

I was ridding my charts and found this from Kathy Barrick and thought as I always do .... pear.  With slight modification I think it will be fabulous.


And look what I found folded in a Magma!!  I need to add a few critters to complete this.
Woke to this yesterday and it stayed for most of the day.  Warming a little this weekend which is build-a-deck day here.  I wish they made Advil in gummies.

Italian beef recipe for sandwiches

3# rump or chuck roast (or smaller)

Make a paste to spread on the roast with

1 TBSP black pepper 
1 TBSP salt 
1 TBSP Colman's mustard powder
1 TBSP garlic powder
1 TBSP Worcestershire 

After covering the roast with the paste, put into a crock
pot and add about an inch of water, low for 6 hours or high for less
Slice in sections across the grain, shred the beef and return 
to the juices, blend well, keep on low until served.  Can be made
ahead and reheated covered.  It's a little peppery hot, I use 3/4 of a TBSP.
More water can be added if you want it juicier, but too much will
lessen the flavor.
 
If it's getting too much water from cooking, secure a towel beneath the 
crock's lid the last hour or two.  If you use a dutch oven to roast in oven,
make sure lid is tight and check for water level, it may dry out and need
more. 

Add your favorite cheese to the bun, pepper rings, mustard, or nothing! 

Have a great day folks!!

Sorry you had snow already, but I am looking forward to having some in these months before Christmas! After that, not so much!!

Hello marly: Wow it sounds like an amazing meal, Carole is a very lucky lady to have you as her sister.
I think the design would be perfect to do a pear, that deer is beautiful.
Love the Sampler and so close to the finish.
60s here today then storms this weekend and back to the cold again.

Have a great weekend

Wow ! what a beautiful frosty garden pic !
Personally, not sure I'd like it in my garden,
and all it means, but it sure looks beautiful ( from here ).
Love the pear ! ( and pear desserts ).
Wishing you and Carole a really nice day.

That will be a fantastic pear!! Lucky you finding a sampler so near completion! :)

We had cold a couple of days ago, but happily no snow. No rain either, we could really use that.

That's a good idea to turn Blue Spruce into a pear. Did you get frustrated by that sampler that it was stuffed in a magma and forgotten? I do remember you working on changes to the grass area by the house.

And thank you for the recipe. I may try those spices and use the IP method for pulled beef. Though I wonder if that might come out on the watery side, might have to boil down the sauce while shredding the beef.

Curious to know know-- what is a Dutch oven??? Never heard of this before...
Wishing you and Carole a great day together and she will like all the food you made for her-- she is such a lucky lady with what you are doing for her!!!
Was that sampler the one where you stitched a bird that was looking like an airoplaine??? It's a beautiful sampler and please finish this one.
Have a great day and take care of yourself Marly!
Big hug,Truus from Holland
