Kind of a nothing day today. Did my treadmill time in the morning and just did little else during the day. It rained off and on, but did clear up enough for a swim in the afternoon. I got my barbecue parts ordered, but it will be 8 to 10 days before I see them (hoping for earlier).  The lamb turned out really well.  I marinated it overnight with garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and oregano.  I dumped the whole thing into the crock pot this morning and cooked it on low.  I’d already trimmed most of the fat off, but took it out at the end and made sure all the fat was gone.  I skimmed a small amount of fat from the liquid left and cooked it down in a pot.  I was in a pasta mood so I added two ounces of pasta into a pot and combined it with the snow peas, the sauce and the lamb.  It really was quite good, although a lot of work.  I might take the rest of the lamb shoulder and cook it all at once, dividing it up into pre-cooked portions.
