Harvest Stew Recipe | Taste of Home Recipes

I made this for a progressive dinner party on Saturday and I got rave reviews. You know they like it when you hear from those not at the dinner that they want the recipe too. I used fresh basil and sage from my garden instead of rosemary and rubbed sage. I also served this with multi grain whole wheat bread and it was perfect for an October evening. (click on the link above the pic for the recipe)

The leftovers we had for Sunday dinner yesterday and it was just as good the next day. I also tried to get my family and friends to guess the secret ingredient (apples)--no one was able to guess. Try offering a reward and see if anybody can get it.

Book Review

I really really liked this book. I would have given it five starts except I reserve 5 stars for classics and for books I think everyone should read. This book had some REALLY gritty parts which some of you might not like.

The female protagonist is strong and vulnerable and really quirky. The male protagonist is real. The story is woven between the two and comes together nicely. I liked too how they tied up both story lines and didn't leave me hanging on the stories although it does on the character story line.

I will definitely read books two and three. I'm only sorry that Stieg Larsson won't be writing lots more.
