Every year during the cold months... well I guess I should say days since it's rarely below 70 here... my Mom cooks up a huge stock pot of steaming stew just chocked full of delicious vegetables and tender stew meat. It is one of my favorite things in the world.. talk about comfort food! Well, yesterday my Mom whipped up her first stew of the season. It was soooo good! I think it was one of her best stews ever. The craziest thing about her stews is that they always seem to be even better reheated the day after. Well, that's definitely true of this stew. I heated some up at my apartment today and it was so soothing after coming in from the cold. Nothing is better than a steaming hot bowl of stew.. well maybe a steaming hot cup of cocoa with marshmallows.. but that's for another day!
And, yes, this photo was taken with my brand new camera! yay! I'm so in love with it. Turns out when my Mom bought my camera for me a couple years back she purchased a replacement warranty. I got to walk in the store and pick out a new one! So awesome! My new camera is fantastic.. it has 10.2 mp and tons of awesome features. It is a Sony and has the touchscreen just like my old one. It really is nice. I love you, Mamma!!! Needless to say, I've been having fun playing with my camera. So, here are a couple of pics I took of my yarn wreath I made a while back. I know the lighting isn't too great.. but it was nighttime.
Next up.. my amazing Mustang Football tee shirt quilt!
Happy Crafting everyone!
Oh, that looks delicious! Congrats on the new camera!

when i saw your plate, bowl & spoon i thought "of COURSE she has stuff like that!" too cute.
and stew is DELISH. it's always better the day(s) after, i think, because all the flavors kind of meld together. YUM!
