At [livejournal.com profile] porphyrin and [livejournal.com profile] moiread's request, I have posted my lamb stew recipe. If "recipe" is the right word. Many of the quantities are "some" and "awhile" and "if you like that sort of thing." Stews do not want precision.

I did not get 17 hours of steadiness this time around. I got somewhere between 6 and 11, because I went to bed at the 6-hour mark and was feeling fine and woke up at the 11-hour mark with a very, very bad vertigo-induced nightmare. Somewhere in the middle there, though. Prior to last week, I was always getting unsteady again before bedtime, so this still feels like progress, though obviously not monotonic progress. I also feel like the good steady times are getting longer and the bad vertigo times are getting slightly more intense. We'll see if it continues like this. Hmmm.

With [livejournal.com profile] moiread in and [livejournal.com profile] mattgritter coming right after her departure and then [livejournal.com profile] markgritter leaving right after his brother does for an extended trip to California, I'm feeling like the end of the year and all its holidays are upon me right now. But [livejournal.com profile] markgritter will be back in time for Lucia Day, and so things are not quite so precipitous as all that. (Still should remember to do everything what needs doing, though.)

All the holidays happen at once!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe it's a series of one-last-excusesreasons to eat up anything perishable/put on as much fat as possible before winter descends to stay and there's nothing but salt meat, root vegetables, pickles and weevilly meal to eat.

No, that would be silly.

You can also use olive oil if you like. Canola oil would probably work. But as a default I use butter.

Oh, and:

Would you be ameable to also posting your chili verde recipe, should you get the chance?
