So, I decided to surprise my wife when she would come home from the hospital and decided to cook... and made my first shepherd's pie (well, cottage pie, but whatever). So yesterday I had to make my first chicken broth as well. It all went really well and - false humbleness aside - it tasted awesome. Even wifey was very pleased and that means a lot to me, because she's an incredibly talented and disciplined cook. But honestly it's all because of the recipe and my willingness to follow it closely, nothing else.

Looks good. How long to ship some to Canada?
I've been making things like stews, chilis, etc recently.

Hey, you might try it yourself - this one is so easy even I could do it 
(just one tip - they say the wine is optional, but definitely do use it). Also, you don't need beef broth - I used a chicken one and it was okay.

I made cottage pie last month, but in a crockpot and with Guinness instead of wine. It was tasty!
I tend to use beers in mine as well!

A nice dark beer in a meat pie, a nice light lager or IPA in a fry batter = YUM.
There was horror at work this week when it was discovered that one of my colleagues puts egg on pizza.

Is this a female colleague?
No. Would you have been interested if they were?

Shocking. Wrong side of the Pennines and all.
So, with a bit of a lack of bread and assorted other things in the house, and competition serious over shopping delivery slots, I'm looking into new recipes to try. Today: Irish potato cakes. We had mashed potato with a meal yesterday, and deliberatly made slightly too much, with a view to trying out other stuff made with mashed potato. I'll post pics if they don't look too bad.

Today's flatbread = Norwegian recipe with potato. What do you reckon @Dr. Eddies Wingman? I didn't get them rolled out flat enough really, but they'll do the job.

Looks nice. Fortunately you posted this right after I had lunch, otherwise pictures of food tend to make me hungry
