But yes, on Monday (traditional laundry day), dinner was some version of a slow cooked meal, left overs from Sunday's roast/joint, or whatever. That is if the family got hot meal at all; even the most brute of a husband knew just how far he could push for a hot meal on wash day.
As mentioned previously in another thread beauty of those old coal or wood fired ranges or even the gas fired AGA versions, is one could put something into the "roasting oven", leave it and get on with one's day. Throw a bit of meat and somethings else into a dutch oven, shove it into the roasting oven for several hours and you had dinner. |
