It was sunny today. Mom made our favorite dish—beef stew—for dinner tonight. It included beef offal, cartilage, tomato sauce, peanut sauce, and a bunch of herbs… Everyone loved it. Dad even saved some for later. He’s really gotten his appetite back. And the best part of all, MeeMaw ate quite a lot, too. I could tell she was looking forward to it because she urged me to hurry home after gym. Mom really did well with that perfect stew.
