(sunday) roast and potatoes
This was as much a Sunday staple at our house as worship and Sunday School. I always enjoyed getting up early, and getting the roast, potatoes and carrots in the oven before getting my children and myself ready to go to church. It was ideal to turn the oven to about 250 to let the roast cook slowly while we were gone to church! The aroma that greeted our return let everyone know that lunch would be ready shortly -- just as soon as the rolls were baked! It's an easy and NEVER FAIL recipe passed down to me by my Aunt Mildred. Enjoy!
