Today it will be not turkey, ham or chicken ... but beef. Beef bourguignon, to be exact. An old crock pot recipe, a meal started in the wee hours to be served 10 hours later.
I wish there were a slow cooker setting for life, a way to slice and dice early, set the dial on "low" and let simmer all the thoughts, happenings, talks, tears and laughter of a year.
Because that's what I'm wanting now. To digest what has happened.
Every year is like that,
but this one...
more than others.
