Overcast and drizzly, good day for a slow cooker meal.

Where are we today ?

        Lotsa rain overnight then on and off most of the day, just like the weather gods predicted. So we had planned a meal in our slow cooker today. And it is a venison stew. We were gifted some venison (bambi) from our good friends at Galvin Bay on our last day there. Pat and Norm. She supplied us with her recipe and even the ingredients. What a fantastic woman Pat is and a supper couple we have known them for over 10 years.
        I got this going by  9 am in the slow cooker on low all day long.  For the recipe click HERE or my recipe blog top right sidebar.      
      While this was happening I played with my Mac Book pro trying to free up hard drive space for most of the rest of the day. Was overcast, cool and drizzly anyway so a good day for it. I made some progress but not enough. Back to the drawing board another day.
       Then about 3:30 the sun came out. Perfect time to get away from my computer and head outside to enjoy some afternoon sunshine and fresh air.
we enjoyed some great fall weather
        A bit later Melinda and Gerry stopped by for a quick enjoyable "Happy Hour" just to give Suzie her doggie fix.
Tucker looking for a treat
Thanks Suzie
          We discussed the work Gerry has been doing to prep their trailer for this winter's travels and shared more stories. Then it cooled down quickly so time for our supper and they head home for theirs as well.
Tucker Look at George!
      This Venison stew was amazing so tender and tasty. Hope we can get some more in the future. If we can as I am not a hunter.
oh so good and leftovers as usual
         Actually not a bad fall day, just mostly drizzly and not too cold, we can deal with that, just not shorts and t-shirt weather right now. Maybe again soon, I can always hope.
        Glad you dropped by and hope your fall day was a good one too.

  2. Suzie looks like she is in deep thought in the one photo. Looks like a philosopher. Bet she has never been called that before.

  4. Love using the slow cooker. It's rare to have something not done perfectly. We're not venison fans but your stew does look good.

    1. This Venison was amazing no wild taste and so tender and lean. If cooked properly it is wonderful.

  5. I'm impressed that your weather gods actually got the prediction right. I don't have much faith in them down here in the states. :c(
