Hello Tuesday Everyone!

It’s another Tuesday and it’s time to do this all over again…whatever this is. Have a great day good people.

Six Word Story

Being human is really, really difficult.

Night Two Of #Hanukkah

It’s night two of the Jewish celebration of Hanukkah. Although we are not Jewish it’s still a good thing to remember the miracle that the holiday is based on. God’s kids celebrating stuff together is what the world needs more of.

Blood Donors But Make It Christmas

I work for a blood bank and I was trying to find something that captures the spirit of the season and some stuff I like. Blood Donation, Christmas Movies and Vampires. I believe this covers a lot of ground.

Red Wine Braised Pot Roast

A good Sunday dinner that reminds me of when I was a kid.

On Friday night after work, we went to the small mall downtown to The Public House for dinner and to see the lights nearby. My favorite dish there is the red wine braised pot roast; it’s so moist and flavorful and just falls apart when your fork touches it. I decided it was time to create my own version! Instead of the mashed potatoes they serve it atop at the restaurant, I opted to cook Yukon Gold potatoes and carrots with the roast; but you can omit these and serve the roast with whatever side dishes you choose. We had enough to last most of Christmas week, allowing us time to finish getting ready for the holiday weekend.

  • 3-4 lb boneless chuck roast
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1 sweet onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, peeled but whole
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
