Shepherd's Pie - My Way πŸ˜‰

in #food β€’ last month

Good Morning!

Anesthesiologist screening today. The closer to the surgery date, the nervous I become. October is a crazy month. Almost daily, there's something noted on my calendar. Tomorrow my husband's mother will land from Hungary, and on the same day I have virtual clinic to attend to, plus a therapy to go to. 14 is (Canadian) Thanksgiving. 15 to 17 is out of town bound. 21 is garage appointment for the car. I also had to move dentist appointment to this month, for right on Halloween day, as the original schedule was a day after surgery πŸ˜… Meh. Seriously a busy month, as everything has to be done before surgery, while I'm still mobile 😬

I hope your October is looking more relaxing than mine! πŸ˜…

We had Shepherd's Pie for dinner last night. Well, not authentic, as this is a what have you Shepherd's Pie and the flavoring is what works for my fussy family 😁 But I do have to say it was delicious and I am not biased, I swear! 😁😁😁😁
