I discovered the reason why we didn't buy eggs last week - the store didn't have duck eggs. They still didn't have duck eggs yesterday so that is a chicken egg.

I discovered some beef short ribs in my freezer when I moved stuff from the old one to the new one. I braised them in beef stock and Strongbow Dry Cider. I had a bed of sliced onions, sautéed, under the meat. I tied up some fresh thyme from my garden, and used salt, pepper and garlic for seasonings. Cooked for three hours at 275F in a cast iron Dutch oven.

I had to go to Total Wine and Spirits for the cider. It's not your basic supermarket cider. They are too sweet.

I usually serve this on a bed of mashed potatoes, but tonight, I shredded the meat, and made tacos. Just meat, some of the cooked onions, and a hatch chili salsa.

The tacos weren't pretty, so I didn't bother to photograph them (plus, I was too busy stuffing them in my face).

Here is an iPhone shot of the Dutch oven at the end of the cook.

That looks delicious. Strongbow is a UK cider (as I'm sure you know).

My all time favourite cider was "Old English" still dry. It came in a ½ gallon jug and was mouth puckering dry. It disappeared from the shelves in the early 90s.

You are a true connoisseur of the amber liquid. British cider has to be dry and still. This was one of my favs in the UK. The French win hands down in the sparkling stakes with this type of product. L’Hermitiére Cidre Brut

Dinner this evening: M&S beef and potato filled Yorkshire pudding, not up to their usual standard but it was a meal.

I made a quick vinaigrette last night, then forgot to have salad, so I made a quick salad today for lunch - just lettuce, tomato, cuke, and radishes.

I also had a handful of mixed nuts and a very small bit of cheese.
