**Sunday**'s Note:

I hadn't made Lamb Stew in quite some time, but with the weather changing from warm to cold from warm to cold...so, I made some for my boyfriend! It was a big hit (and he has never had Lamb before)! So, just to tell you my "measurements" aren't exactly 100%, but close enough!

I modified this to make on the stovetop. I also left out the carrots, which I don't think go well with lamb. We thought this was excellent, and really liked the richness imparted by the tomato paste. Thanks for posting!
