Slow Food - The Beginning

This may not be slow food in the revolutionary vein, rather it is the first time we're experimenting with a slow cooker. And if you're going to do something new, you might as well pull out some stops. So, a pound of white turnips, new carrots, onion, baby king mushrooms, garlic from yesterday's foray to the Brickworks market, an eye of the round roast, our own basil, salt, pepper, and a can of Guinness later, dinner is cooking at 7:30 am. This may not be the first time we've started cooking this early, but usually that's just to get the stock pot going, or because we're canning.

Now, the waiting game begins... Time to make breakfast...
