Dear GOD this is delicious!

Tonight after work, with the cold and the bike-riding and my little incident earlier, I was in the mood for some comfort food.

So I made a beef Burgundy (well, more of a beef Bordeaux) from a recipe by one of those wonderful curvaceous women TV chefs--Nigella Lawson or the Barefoot Contessa or somebody, who clearly stole it from Julia Child: all cubes of beef and wine and bacon and mushrooms and carrots and onions and pepper and garlic, slow-cooked in a heavy pot in the oven. It just came out, and I am enjoying a bowlful of it now.

There's a loaf of ciabatta bread and some butter, and gosh, I wish I could share it with all of you--I've got a nice salad too, so the vegetarians could join us!

Thank you for my star cookies, [livejournal.com profile] sparky77, [livejournal.com profile] llaras, [livejournal.com profile] lambourngb and [livejournal.com profile] buffyaddict13. You've helped make the winter holiday season so bright!
