cottage pie? what?

i just discovered, thanks to my mindless wanderings through recipes on the web, that i have been calling my recipe of meat, corn and potato goodness the wrong thing for years. my shepherd's pie, as i have been calling it, is actually referrerd to as 'cottage pie' if it uses beef. 'shepherd's pie' is the same recipe, essentially, but with lamb instead of beef. regardless, i thought my shepherd's pie...ahem...i mean, 'cottage pie' (that sounds like some sort of gross, curdly middle school cafeteria food) was deserving of a photo opp:

mmm...now all it need is like, a gallon of ketchup dumped on top.
