The Reluctant Farmer does almost all the cooking around here, since he works from home, and I do the commute.
He’s gotten to be an amazing cook … which is really a significant accomplishment.
For example, way back when he was first experimenting with this whole cooking and baking thing, he baked a birthday cake for Dinosaur Boy … and didn’t have any idea that you are only supposed to fill cake pans halfway full, since the cake rises. After cake baking, he learned oven cleaning!
Since then, he’s come a long way. Dinner is always ready when I get home, and pretty much always delicious – very few of his experiments turn out to be something nobody likes.
Today’s wonderful crock pot supper consisted of lamb garlic sausage (oh boy is it good, the butcher did a fabulous job) in tomato sauce with potatoes and one clove of garlic.
However …
TRF didn’t realize that one clove of garlic is not the same as one whole garlic bulb. :)
Believe me, there will be no vampires in our house tonight, but boy, was it good!
There's much enjoyment to be had from a bulb of garlic. I had a bulb of roasted garlic on a calzone from the Grizzly Grill in Kingston, and Jenn woke up with nightmares of cloves of garlic chasing her. It's amazing how naturally grown garlic is so much stronger than traditional grocery store garlic.
