Eat, Read, and Be Mommy

Whoops–this was supposed to happen last night, wasn’t it.  Ah, well.  We spent last night moving a couch, a love seat, and a piano into our dining room…various other items and pieces of furniture into the littles’ bedroom (they’re having a two night sleepover at Grandma’s house!)…and unclogging our vacuum.  AND cleaning up the small mountain of shattered glass that was once the door to the upper cupboard of our old entertainment center.

Sigh.

BUT, on the other hand, we get new carpet today!  And I get to post this recipe for Balsamic Roast Beef, which I tried a week or two ago.  (Believe it or not, I followed the recipe completely, unless you count being really skimpy on the red pepper flakes because we’re wimps.)  It afforded us two dinners with a little left over; the first dinner just as pieces of roast, which were fine.  The second dinner, however, involved putting the meat on rolls with some good Provolone and sliced tomatoes, and that dinner, my friends, was AMAZING.  Dip them in the juices if you’ve got enough, and it’s a party in your mouth.  I’ll bypass the first meal next time and just do the sandwiches–and freeze the rest so we can do it all over again!
