16 May 08 Multi-Tasking

I’ve been doing a little of that this morning.

Started off with coffee (of course). Then waded through emails; archived many, acted om some; deleted others. Got the Inbox under control though.

Started work on some web projects.

Got hungry mid morning. Went to kitchen, then remembered run out of bread, and didn’t make any yesterday. Found a left-over baked potato in the refrigerator, along with some left-over steak.

Cut it up, and fried it along with an egg, for brunch.

While I was at it, got some bread underway in the machine, and also got some meatballs into the crockpot along with some tomatoes, and sauce for dinner.

Eat food, did the dishes, went back to the web work. Now sitting here typing this and getting a waft of that hot bread smell….

14 May 08 Beef Stew

I had a rummage around in the kitchen around lunchtime, trying to think of what to make for dinner. I’m a big fan of decent fresh food, and as I was going to be working most of the afternoon, I decided to do something that, once prepared, needs little attendance – a beef stew in the crockpot.

I diced up some chuck, also some potatoes, carrots, rutabaga and onion, and put it in the pot. On top of that went a half pint of beer, some chopped garlic, herbs, and some season salt.
