Pink Gold

A couple of days ago, the pot at the end of my rainbow looked like this.



After a minimal amount of work the contents of this pot looked like this.


When the plate was clean we looked like this.
The corned beef was extra extra delicious-not because we had the help of leprechauns or the luck of the Irish.  Our secret is that we "corn", or brine, the beef ourselves.  That way we have control over the flavor.  It is easy and sooo much more interesting than store bought.

A final glamour shot of the succulent beef.
