Vegetable filled beef stew +DIY slow cooker tip

This delicious and nutritious vegetable and beef stew is sure to fill you up and make sure you will have your 5 a day. I made this stew, and everyone wanted seconds and even thirds, so no leftover stew for lunch the next day. But I didn’t mind because I wanted more stew as well, it was just so yummy.

My top 3 goals this year

A new year and new resolutions, this year instead of focusing on the smaller things as I did in previous years, I want to focus on some big goals. I usually focus on a specific skill for the year, like bread baking, knitting, meat preparation, or the year when I focused on making biscuits. But this last year we took a big step with our little family, and it felt good. So we have two big goals that will greatly impact our family and one that is more for me personally.
