Mmm, Beef


I've been craving beef for weeks now. Even if I have a little taste I've been wanting more. I'm actually very much looking forward to going to Bugaboo Creek for T's birthday so I can get a nice NY Strip steak but that will have to wait another month. In any event, Kelly had a coupon for buy a roast, get the onions, carrots and potatoes free so that solved last nights dinner dilemma. She stuck everything in the crockpot the night before so by the time we got in from the gym food was ready (all but the potatoes actually but that's okay). I have to say I'm not a big veggie fan but there's something about roasted carrots that I love. When they're all mushy and hot I just go gaga. This picture was taken about halfway through the meal - so try to imagine maybe a 1/3 more beef and at least triple the carrots on my plate. I know it still doesn't seem like much in the way of veggies but we were kind of limited on carrots. Next time I'll request double carrots! As a treat while watching nonsensical videos on youtube I made us some decaf hazelnut coffee. 

Summary:

1 cup decaf hazelnut coffee
3-4 Tbsp coffeemate
2 packets Splenda
4-5 oz. (?) pot roast, fat trimmed
1/2 cup cooked carrots
