I had the yummiest stew yesterday

and the leftovers will be over Polenta tonight.  (From stone ground corn from the Readyville Mill)  It was  a veggie stew - had eggplant, mushrooms, carrots, onions, peppers, tomatoes, cauliflower and baby blue potatoes and I just simmered it all in a bit of red wine, veggie broth (really only a little - just to keep the whole mess from drying out) fresh thyme and rosemary from my herb garden and some garlic and herbs de provence.  I had seconds.  Of course Doyle didn't like it - oh well, he's back at eating meat & eggs.
