I don't see any reason why you couldn't put in the squash with the rest at the beginning, as they say.  Of course, anything that calls for browning I prefer to do on the weekend anyway.  
Note: I put the olives in on top at the 5 hour mark instead of waiting until the end.
The recipe actually called for 4 lamb shanks, but they looked so big I only bought two, which was fine, but I think I would use 3 next time.  It all falls off the bone and ends up as stew anyway.  
	
 
		
		
Timelies all!
Huh. So I'm the first person to post this morning. (Yes, I have the day off)

At some point we're going to the movies.
	
 
		
		
I has to work.  I hates it.
Is the Hadron Collider named after a person named Hadron?  Because I cannot stop reading it as the Hardon collider and am wondering if Mr. or Ms. Hadron have that problem with the name.
ETA:  I found out, after about a year of speaking is LOLcat phrases at work that NO ONE KNOW WHAT A LOLCAT WAS!!!  And they must have thought I was completely crazy for saying things like "I can has copy paper?"
	
 
		
		
A hadron is a kind of particle. But you're so not the first to think that (note that largehardoncollider.com is NSFW)
	
 
		
		
That makes more sense, amych.  I was thinking that in naming something with Large and Collider, they should have avoided using Mr. Hardon's name
	
 
		
		
 Oh Julianne Moore, what the hell were you thinking. Just NO. [link]
Is that made of black velcro, or did she just wriggle into a worn-out tire and staple a dress to the underside?
	
 
		
		
I think VK dyed his hair to match Christina Hendricks' dress, and it wasn't a good color on either of them.
	
 
		
		
Heh. Amanda Palmer is identified in her GG picture accompanied by "guest." (Neil, of course.)
	
 
		
		
Meryl's dress was by Chris March:
