Football Sundays are in full swing at our house and on the last few balmy days of autumn (of which we have had quite a few this year!), Pop enjoys the televised games on the screened-in porch. Sometimes I will join him for awhile and almost always we have lunch there on our laps. Finger food is the easiest option; a favorite is nachos, but yesterday I changed things up a bit and instead of the usual ground beef, I chopped up some leftover chuck roast, which was heated in a few spoonfuls of beef broth. Tortilla chips were spread an a platter with the beef scattered atop and then sprinkled with lots of cheddar and monterey cheese. After a quick spin in the microwave, the nachos were served with small side bowls of sour cream and salsa. Oh, plus several napkins and a beer!In a world that talks too much, writing is a way to capture thoughts and shine a light on the enterprise of life - at home, in the kitchen, out in the garden and almost always through a camera lens.

Roast Beef Nachos...and a Beer
