This week I made one of my hubby's favorite meals - boiled dinner; very similar to corned beef and cabbage, but made with ham.
We've been married 21 years and I just started making this meal about 10 years ago. Every time we would go up 'north' to see my in-laws, my mother-in-law would come greet us and say "Guess what I am making?" With a inward groan, but a happy voice, I would say "Boiled Dinner?!?"
You see, I am not a ham eater, nor did I care for carrots too much, so this meal was absolutely not on MY list of favorites. But, after several years, it grew on me. And after several more years, I tried making it; wow, so easy! For the most part, this is a pretty frugal meal too, which is always a plus!
So, we enjoyed our boiled dinner this week, which turned out to be as good as mom's!
