Pot Roast


Friday 9 December
Julia Child's recipe is our go-to for the long-simmered pot roast.  So simple, so satisfying, and no pre-browning.  Our chosen vegetables were the classics: carrots, parsnips, and potatoes.
This actually overdid itself a bit (it was in the oven from 2-8:30 PM, after all) while we were out at the Holidays on Ludlow festival waiting for our annual carriage ride.  But thanks to Dr. Terri and the staff at Howell Avenue Pet Hospital for the sweets and cocoa that held body and soul together until we got home for dinner, and also for the toy for Dora, who prefers not to go to the vet even for a photo with Santa.
