Pork Stew with Green Chiles, Orange & Cilantro
Amy suggested I take a look at this stew. As soon as I saw that it was made with pork shoulder - one of my favorite cuts of meat, I knew it would be perfect for tonight. I wanted to make something that could be done ahead of time so I didn't have to deal with a bunch of last-minute stuff. It was good, although a little spicy for Jay. And the focaccia was delicious as usual.
The blueberry pie was a test recipe for Cook's Illustrated. Really good! Larry wants me to make it again for sure.

The pie is gorgeous! Gary loves pie but I rarely make it; I'm a bad wife.
Since there were only 2 of us, there was lots of leftover stew, which I froze. I think it's going to be even better the 2nd time! I loved it.
