Tuesday I made French Dip sandwiches in the crockpot. I put the extra meat in a container, strained another container of au jus... and started to dispose of the rest. It was almost to late when I swear it was like a light blub popped on over my head. I poured the rest, little meat bits, onions and all into another container and put it in the deep freezer to try to make beef stew with it in the future. I'm so proud of myself, I feel silly!
