#*^@#* the Solstice Guinness Stew

[El Jason]

For all of my SAD afflicted friends, here is a stew to warm your soul as we celebrate the addition of daylight to our lives.

We commemorate the public land elk who gave her life, at the hands of a 6.5 CM no less, for this dish.



Here is to longer days and a steelhead green (hopefully) river.

8 hours of daylight makes good stew weather. I need to shoot more whitetails, I forgot how tasty they are.

Looks yummy. Is the secret to drink the Guinness while you prep?

One of my most colossal failed experiments was IPA stew. Hoppy does not translate well. It is possible that it was a mistake to drink Imperial IPAs while doing a kitchen experiment.

Absolutely. The Guinness was excellent. I hadn’t had one in forever.

The only change I would make is cook the meat for a couple of hours and then put in the veggies. They got a little mushy.

Mushy veggies and chewy venison don't bother me....looks delicious.

I think he’s talking about Jason’s lawn in the first pic.

Thanks, missed that.
Green isn't as obvious to my eyes, nor red.
A few other tones blend in to create a pleasant mosh.
Lifelong affliction.

La Niña is in full force. But yeah the short days suck. There’s a reason we’ll never live in Alaska.

The lawn is green, but the river is not

I’m in the minority here, but I dread the day that the days get longer. I love long dark mornings and long cold nights. Maybe it’s because I’m a farmer, and longer days signal stress and long days. Either way, good looking soup!
