Let's Cook Real Slow
I live in really small house. Not like a tiny house because I am an enormous person, but a small house. With a couple of kids, lots to do and no real desire at the end of a week to cook anything elaborate, I revel when winter arrives, and I can just slip something in the oven for the day. It feels really natural to have some meat slowly melting away while the oven warms your home. With a small house, an oven working away will heat things enough to nearly run you out. I've 100% eaten braised beef shanks in January in a tank top.
Well that was folksy. I'm writing this on Thursday, so maybe when you get this it's snowed. If so, we hope it was beautiful and brought some slowness. If it didn't, it will maybe snow again at some point - maybe. Thanks for all the orders this week preparing for whatever the weather ended up like!
