I put cabbage in my pot roast all the time. I don't use a crock pot. I put it in the last 30 minutes or so.
Here's a tip: Carrots can over power anything with their flavor. So I roast the carrots and chucks of potatoes (or small ones)
in the oven. This gets the carrot juice out of them with a nice roasted flavor. Plus the potatoes are roasted and they absorb the pot-roast gravy! I put both of those in at the end too.
There's only a small number of carrot slices, along with one stalk of celery sliced, one whole onion (sauteed/carmelized) and no potatoes (going with mashed) on this one. If this turns out, I'll post the recipe somewhere here with appreciation for any critique and/or suggestions.
 

Just got back from getting a few groceries. Did not really need much, but we may or may not have some snow coming in tonight and tomorrow. Just got prepared . Decided I am going to hermit in a while and start binge watching all the stuff on my list.
 
I got up around 6:40,looked out bedroom window,suprised we actually got some snow around 7inches
I went for a short walk outside couldn't go far because none of the sidewalks had been shoveled,at least my knees got a workout It was 25 with no wind was refreshing
I have no plans today,hopefully the sidewalks will be shoveled when I venture out again on my mid morning& afternoon walks.The rest of my day read NYT,start reading a new book
 
When I went on my early walk around 6:40,it was a tad nippy outside,8 degrees ,but no wind it was refreshing,not much traffic,saw 2 people walking their dogs.One owner wasn't wearing a hat,too busy looking at her phone
The sidewalks are certainly in much better shape than yesterday most are shoveled with salt,made it easier for me to walk
This morning Mary&I are going on our weekly'road trip' this time to Walgreens,need a couple items
The rest of my day read NYT,my book,may go out for afternoon walk since the sun is suppose to make an appearance,boost my spirits
 
The medication has made me very sick, the cure worst than the bite for sure. It is still snowing and now we are at two feet and our close to the ground car will not get through it so had to call my son who has a jeep

He left work, took me to the lab for blood tests, and now I am home again. that is all I am getting done till I am off these meds. Bad Bella Bad puppy.
 
Nothing again today. It's been raining all day, and with almost everything closed there's nowehere to go... I've got to frame some pictures, but my back has been killing me today so I'm unable to bend over without pain, so I've spent half the day with a hot pad on my back.....
Hmm, hopefully not a kidney infection, but I notice rainy weather always make my joints hurt more. You can use the rest, however, as long as you are home I‘ll bring Bella over to keep you company. Just watch the teeth.😂

Feel better 😍

My friend,Mary&I never made it to Walgreens this morning because her boss asked her to do something at the last minute,she profusely apologized.I told her 'don't worry about it,there's always next week'
Instead,I went for a long walk 6 blocks to/from a grocery store'Price Rite' for a couple items.I was too tired to go on afternoon walk
 
Yesterday our cabinet mounted wall oven refused to open after my wife used the self cleaning setting. The oven door would not unlock. All of the electronics has also died. Today I spent quite a bit of time reviewing videos and studying manuals as I contemplated taking it apart myself. I suspect that we lost the major control board and maybe more. Apparently, oven doors not opening after having the self-cleaning is a common problem, but what we have seems to be more than that alone.

It did not take me too long to conclude that this particular task was a bit beyond what I should tangle with. We have a technician coming on Monday. My Federal Income Tax Return is coming at the right time and has a designated destination.
