Slow Cooker Red Wine Braised Roast Beef
Gifted red wine becomes the base for this tender and rich Slow Cooker Red Wine Braised Roast Beef. The tomatoes cooked with the beef make the perfect "gravy" for your pasta. This dish has literally been sitting in the queue for months. MONTHS. I’m not sure why I never shared it with you. I think it’s because the photos just aren’t that great and I always thought I’d redo them. However, every time I make this it pretty much looks the same. So, this is one of those it tastes better than … [Read more...]

#Noovi Intruduces Us to #Rakja and Delicious Food

I woke up thinking, “This two weeks are going to take FOREVER!” It’s only Wednesday. *sigh* I splurge at breakfast this morning and get a croissant. I slather it with the hazelnut cream from the breakfast “buffet.” They were milk chocolate. I don’t think I’ve ever seen milk chocolate croissants… ever. Not that that’s bad, but it’s just…different. They … [Read more...]
