Yesterday, I went to the mall to shop for some jeans, and to see New Moon (more on New Moon later) and I came home with a few extra things from Aero due to some awesome deals and a 30% off coupon, of course.
When I got home, this delicious stew was waiting for me, along with my two favorite people in the world. I made some Irish soda bread and we had a delicious dinner together.
Recipe by my husband David

1 brown onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, sliced
3 Tbs olive oil
in a skillet over medium high heat. saute until onion is soft.
then add:
16 oz baby portabello mushrooms, sliced thick
1 bottle stout beer (we used Samuel Adams Cream Stout)
6 red potatoes, diced
and water to cover potatoes + 1 inch or so.

1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp marjoram
