In honour of the dreadful weather today I will be making a beef roast with yorkshire pudding for dinner. With lots of gravy.

Pork Veronique for me. Got the ingredients this morning. First time I've cooked it since my bloke passed - it was his favorite dish (and very close to mine). Terribly bad for him (so much cream!), but so delicious. It's time to reclaim it now the grief has retreated a bit.

EDIT: Is there a sane and rational reason why supermarkets DON'T sell frozen mirepoix? I would have thought that such was a no-brainer but WDIK. They keep putting corn in the mixed vegetables, where it has no business being imo.

It really is looking like a chips and gravy kind of night. If i had the energy and didn't already have food in the fridge I'd be seriously considering making my own poutine...

I'm gonna do a big fat beef stew. Tossing up whether to go traditional or break out the masala for more of a curry vibe
