Can anybody say "windchill"?

It was another crazy day at work. I ended up running to both Office Depot (near my house) and Office Max (in Westland). I stopped and got some lunch at the Newburgh Grille (a bowl of soup and I needed it!) It was cold and windy with occasional showers. Brrr!

When I got home after work, I apologized to the cats and gave them their treats.

I checked out the computer for email and watched a bit of the news. Believe it or not, I fell asleep! It’s been a rough couple of days and nights.

I woke up around 8:30 PM and started making supper. I cut the cold roast in as thin of slices as I could and then sprinkled them with Montreal Steak Seasoning. I left them out to warm up.

I sautéed a fine-diced shallot in some butter. When the shallot was translucent, I stirred in some flour. Then I slowly added two cans of beef stock, whisking all the while. Once it came up to a boil, I turned it down to simmer and added in the beef. I loaded up the mini-sub buns with some beef (I made two) and poured some of the au jus into a ramekin. I dipped and munched my French dip sandwiches watching TV.

Because of my unexpected nap, I stayed up until about midnight and then went to bed.
