I love fall. If it was constantly 55 degrees and a little overcast, I'd be the happiest girl in the world. I'd be perfectly content to spend my days wrapped in cashmere sweaters, drinking huge cups of green tea (read: my favorite cabernet) while I nearly burn out my crockpot in an attempt to slow roast the largest cut of meat i can fit in there (seriously, that was the best $20 i've ever spent).
In fact, I really don't know why people love summer so much. Especially New Yorkers. I mean, the subway constantly smells like hot pee! Is that not a deterrent to you?! Don't get me wrong, I love picnics and grilled corn, and laying on the beach as much as the next guy. But I would tell a weekend at the beach to bite me, in exchange for a weekend of chilly farmers markets visits and fireplace coziness.
And so began my need to make a yummy soupy-stewy something. But alas, what soupy-stewy something should I make? And then I found this in my freezer...
Yep, a good ole smoked turkey wing. How that managed to say hidden in the back of my freezer for so long, I'll never know. But as soon as it made it's way out, it ended up in my crockpot with a bunch of lentils, and carrots, and onions, and herbs. And several hours later, in my belly.
Mmm mmm good.
