honeymonsterOkay, so now I will share with you the recipe to make a yummy dinner that, up until two months ago, I hadn't had since I was thirteen.. when we moved out of my grandmother's house.
You need:
A working stove
A big pan, like a dutch oven, with a lid
a ham butt (sometimes called pork butt or pork shoulder butt, comes pre-cooked)
enough potatoes for all of the people you are trying to feed
enough green beans, ditto
Okay, fill the pan a little more than halfway with water. Unwrap your ham and rinse it off. If it seems to be coated tightly with more plastic, take that off too.
Put the ham into the pot, the pot on the stove, and turn the heat to low. Cook the ham for an hour.
Right before the hour is up, peel the potatoes and cut them into medium chunks. Add the potatoes to the pot with the ham, then add the green beans (I use frozen, fresh probably works too.) Stir everything up, then cover the pan again. Cook this for half an hour to forty-five minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
I like to mash up my potatoes and green beans with butter. They taste so good, all ham-flavored and stuff.
Taked to Bill today.. *purr*
We didn't talk about much that was important. We did cover nail polish (I was telling him about how just recently I'd painted my nails for the first time in ten years..) and feet..
Is it a bad sign when your man knows more about nail polish than you do?
