Beef Stew

Winter time for me means crockpot soups, stews and more comfort foods. Beef stew is a family favorite like most my recipes. I swear the kids tell me all the time "mom you are an amazing cook." Sometimes, I do not believe them because I make mistakes, I fuck up, it is called being human. Butttttt other times, I am like hells yes I am!!! That dinner was amazing!!! This is one of those. You Will Need: 1 Chuck Roast 1 Bag Small Potatoes, cut 1 Bag Baby Carrots 64 oz. Beef Bone Broth (this is important) 4-6 packets Beef Gravy (I use Kinder Bone Broth Gravy) It is important you use beef bone broth. Why? Because bone broth is sooooo good for you! It has natural collagen and fats that keep you from getting sick. We switched to bone broths ONLY and have rarely gotten sick during winter months. Nothing more than a common cold, no flu, no covid *knocks on wood*! Crockpot cook on high for 4 hours, low 6 hours. I like low and slow!!     

Garth Brooks Concert!

The most amazing night of our lives! I cannot express enough how amazing this night was. My husband, Daniel, has been a long time fan of Garth Brooks (as have I growing up listening to his music) and relied on his music overseas, to remind him of home. While I was trying to figure out what to get Daniel for our 4th anniversary this year (Feb. 14th) I started looking at concert ideas and just trying to figure it out when I came across Garth Brooks concert tickets on StubHub. I was super concerned about buying tickets off StubHub as I did not want to pay money for fake tickets. I contacted them and they explained to me their policy about selling fake tickets and how if they were fake they would have us new tickets as soon as possible and refund. Well, I bought the tickets and boy was I worried! As soon as we arrived in Cincinnati (2 hour drive from us) we went to a casino for lunch and to spend some adult time alone (as this was our 'anniversary' celebration since we both work on the day. We scanned the tickets in at the Us Bank Area and we WERE IN!!! I was so excited they were not fake!! Daniel and I had one of the most amazing nights of our lives and to top it off Garth Brooks said he was recording his new live album that night and we were going to be on the album!! WOW!





























Happy anniversary to my love!!! I could not be happier!! Even though I could not hear, and had the worst headache after the concert I would never change it for anything it was a blast! I LOVE you Daniel!
