I made stew last night. Almost forgot onions! That's what happens when you don't start with the onion.

It figures to be better today than yesterday. Like in the song.

I love you more today than yes-ter-day
But not as much as to-morrrr-oh
I love you more today than yes-ter-day
But not half as much as to-morr-arr-arrr-oh


Every day's a new day, every day I love stew.

O made some good soup at Thanksgiving. Perhaps I want a food processor after all. But I also want a good stew pot. Like this one:

[calphalon stock pot]

Look--- it comes with an onion.

I keep meaning to remember to tell you that your postcard arrived. And made me smile.

This leaves me with a vague desire to make my onion-infused but not containing actual onion bits tomato sauce. But as there are already lots of tomato-based foods in my refrigerator, I'll probably refrain.

A good stock pot is a priceless tool in the kitchen. I just got my 3rd one for Christmas.

I recommend going to a Resturant Supply Warehouse. They have good, heavy duty ones for a resonable price. They don't come with onions.

Oh, and you do not know joy in the kitchen until you have an immersions blender!!!

This is my workhorse! Nothing fancy, but she is faithful and hard working!

I have a much older version--- belonged to my grandmother, I believe. The main drawback is that its bottom is all curvy now. I'm cookin' with gas, so that could be worse, but still, a flat bottom and relatively even conducting would be good.
