Our first-born,
Penelope, bought her mother a stainless steel set of cookware for Christmas, even though we don’t do nearly as much cooking as we once did. However,
Dearly Beloved came across a roast in the grocery store recently that she just could not resist. So, last week, the two of us set out to “break in” the new set of cookware.
I frequently have a hand in a lot of the cooking chores these days because she has limited use of her arms due to shoulder injuries of long ago. During these shared cooking sessions, DB generally gathers the ingredients required, then tells me what to do with them. I chopped up some celery sticks, sliced up an onion and plopped a healthy tablespoon of crushed garlic into the pot.
