Another week has gone by and here we are, closing in on MAY?!?! Where does the time go?
2nd Man made a pot roast yesterday. One of those meals that just makes you want to take a nap when you're finished. A nice chuck roast, seared, with seasonings and potatoes, onions, celery, carrots and mushrooms, all covered and put in the oven low and slow for a few hours.
It was melt in your mouth wonderful. We had enough for yesterday's meal, we'll eat it again today and have a bit left for lunch tomorrow. Win/win/win.
Hobart was not interested. He decided yesterday was a good day for relaxing on the window seat pillows (we saved them from when we sold the house). We put them there to make it easier for him to get up onto the chair, sort of like soft stairs. Because...
Pot roast is always a comfort food to me. Yours looks delicious. Hobart rules!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it comforting? We love it. Don't have it often enough, need to do it more often. Thank you and yep, Hobart rules, ha.
DeleteFor some reason I decided that a good beef stew was just what I wanted. Your meal makes me want it even more. Soft stairs sounds like a good idea. Sweet Hobart deserves a soft life.
ReplyDeleteMmm, beef stew is good too. And really, this is kind of that, right? Ha. Soft stairs would be great for us as we all get older, I know we're always looking for comfort. And yes, he deserves it and he has it. :-)
Deletei love pot roast. my family loves it when i make one.
ReplyDeleteIt's old school but so good isn't it? Thanks!!
DeleteYour roast and vegetables look fantastic! It’s one of my favorite meals. Easy to make and so delicious and so versatile for other meals.
ReplyDeleteHobart looks very comfy on his TWO cushions!
Easy for sure. I mean, we just sear the meat a bit, some broth, seasonings, and the veggies, it's just so easy to put together. The hardest part is waiting for the cooking time, ha. They are always best when the meat is just falling apart tender. And yep, Hobart likes his cushions. It's funny, they (all three cats) used to sleep on them when they were in the window seat at the house. I think he remembers that.
Deletepot roast is a popular dish for a good reason. my family loves it when i make it. hobart has the life!!!
