Share your quitting journey
I'm not going to talk about beef; I'm going to talk about lamb. Delicious lamb chops, actually. I'm going to talk about them because someone here expressed concern about my eating beef and I thought to meself, "Self, you've got these old shoulder chops in the freezer that have been there since Lincoln was in law school, so why not try them, instead?"
So I did because, magically, nothing in my freezer ever gets freezer burn. I found meself a great recipe and modified it slightly to create Colvin's Glorious Slow-Roasted Lamb Arm Chops, and they're amazing.
Because here's your choice as a newbie smoke quitter: you can stick a cigarette in your mouth and light it and get stinky ash everywhere which you will have to clean up later, feel dizzy and horrendously guilty on your first few puffs, hate yourself for breaking your quit, etc. OR, you can spend time making something delicious which will take you away, like a Calgone bath, from the idea of smoking.
Cigarette ash vs. delicious lamb. Really? Is this a hard choice? And they really are fork-tender. Yumm.
Here's the recipe. Get busy. Busy hands don't have time for cigarettes.
