Culinary Redemption

I seem to have been cooking more than usual the past few days. Therefore, I think it's necessary to document this here: I cut down the time it took to make boeuf bourguignon from seven hours to FOUR! AND I made mashed potatoes. And it tasted really, really good. And I modified the recipe. It was the best dinner I've had in a long, long time, and it will last me a forever because there's a lot of it. Either that, or I have to invite a lot of people over for dinner in the next few days. That could be an issue, because it's quad break and everyone is leaving! Although it might still be around by the time everyone gets back...
