This week is a sad one, for one reason. One of our favorite home teachers from this ward is leaving for Lubbock, Texas for a new job. He invited the 19 Somerset gals and his old companion over for a potluck supper at his home tonight. He wanted to make dessert for us, because he found a fabulous recipe for Praline Pecan Cheesecake (mmmmmmm).... So, Emily and Lindsay embarked on a new adventure by creating a beef stew. Lindsay found a recipe online for a curry beef stew, but we deviated a bit. What else is new? We cooked the meat with flour and a myriad of spices such as curry, ginger, garlic powder, etc. We added fresh vegetables and let it simmer before and during stake choir practice, while making some rolls to go with it. It turned out pretty well - we learned something, though. Turns out, cinnamon actually brings out the taste of curry! Weird, huh? So there was a cinnamon-y sort of twist, but it was delectable, and made the guys happy. ;)
Honestly, Lee and Brian were fantastic home teachers. They were incredibly faithful, always checked on us and became very dear friends of ours. We're grateful to have gotten to know them, and are sad to see Lee go, but are thrilled that he gets to embark on a new journey in Texas. And we're glad that we had an excuse to cook again! :P
