Stomach Bone Stew

or Pig Limb Stew
My mom told me to help make dinner. Ok. What do I need to do? Well, you chop up some of the usual stuff [carrots, celery, onions] and then put the ham bone in. I did a double take - wait what?  Ham bone. Seriously? She showed it to me.. yup.  A ham bone.  So later after the beans have soaked for two hours - yeah, this soup is weird - I chop up the stuff (well, The Muffin does as I got sharp pains in my wrist every time I tried to chop.. THAT'S from my rifle, but I Love Colorguard anyway.  Plus I'll have super strong wrists!) and take the ham bone out of the bag.  Yummy! :P I held it over the pot and told The Muffin to look over.. 'ew.'  So as I stirred the stew and ham bone, I commented
"This bone looks like a limb... because it is!"
That cracked The Muffin up a whole lot, as most of you can see by how she put it as her status.  Then, my mind already in rediculous mode or something, I said
"At first I thought it was like, a stomach bone, but no, it's a leg or something."
THAT really got to Muffin as well.  STOMACH bone?! BAHAHAHA!  Hey, I meant rib okay??  It's kinda close...

And thus the beginnings of the Stomach Bone Stew!  Doesn't it look so good?
Yeah, not really, I hope it'll taste differently than it looks... :)
