Shepherd's pie, first try

I've always wanted to make Shepherd's pie since I’ve seen F.R.I.E.N.D.S, the episode where Rachel tried making an English trifle and ended up mixing the recipe with a shepherd's pie recipe. For some reason I thought it looked yummy :) and as Joey puts it "what's not to like?!"



The good news, the pie turned out great, al7amd lellah, next step is the English Trifle inshalah.
