Roast Beef with Mushroom Gravy

Yesterday Mom put a roast in the crock pot.  Then I finished the rest of the meal. We had some mushrooms in the fridge that I wanted to use so I made a mushroom gravy.  I also made mashed potatoes and heated up some green beans.  It was amazing if I can say so myself.  The mushroom gravy made the meal.  Even my siblings, who though they did not like mushrooms, loved it.  I know why that is. Umami.  Mushrooms have umami, which is one of the five basic tastes.  It's good.
