Day 31 – All of this shelter-in-place is starting to feel, well, normal. Some days it seems like this is the way it has always been and always will be. And other days it seems like this has just been a horrible dream. Today is a good day for me. I am beginning to see…

Top 5 Blog Posts for March 2020
The top recipe for the past 5 months has been the Pork, Sauerkraut and Apples (click for link to recipe). With pork having been super inexpensive in most places it makes sense. This dish has great flavor and is super simple for a nice easy dinner. Throw it in the slow cooker and dinner is…
Sour Cream Pork Chops
Pork chops were super cheap a few weeks ago, $.99/lb, so you know I bought 10-15 lbs for the month. Now it is time to start cooking them! I remembered a recipe that I made a few weeks ago that I thought would work perfectly with pork instead of chicken. The recipe was simple so…
Choose Your Topping Pork Chops
We made a deal that if we were done before dinner before the ice cream shop closed we would get ice cream and head to the beach. It was already 8:00 pm so we weren’t sure if it was possible. This meal made it possible. Super simple and we were to the beach before sunset!…
Brown Sugar Pork Chops
This dish was hard to photograph. We cooked it in butter so it had a shine to it so it was difficult to get a good picture. I have been reading quite a bit about cooking pork and one of the best suggestions we read was to cook it like a steak so it doesn’t…
Slow Cooker Pork Chops with Cinnamon Apples
So, this is how we spent our Thanksgiving. My daughter danced in the Mid-America Oireachtas (eer-uh kh-tus) in Louisville, Kentucky. We had a great trip and a fun weekend but we are all worn out. Two of the four have colds now and thankfully since we got home last night about 6 pm today was…
Honey Garlic Pork Chops
School started the last two days in most areas of Michigan and New York. I am watching my friends post back-to-school pictures and hoping everyone has a great day. I forget how tired we all are during the first week of school. I had planned on these big fancy dinners to celebrate and when the…

Every month I try to highlight the top three to five posts from the previous month in case you missed them. This month highlights are a salad, a pizza, and a slow cooker meal. We are definitely into the change of seasons. I think everyone is caught between summer and fall right now. I posted…
Herbed Pork Chops with Garlic Butter
We are looking for very simple dishes as we head back to school in two weeks. I love summer vacation so I am sad to see the days getting shorter but happy that my son will soon have a regular schedule. Though we try to keep one over the summer it is not quite as…
Flavorful Fried Pork Chops
We have tons of great things happening this month so I am trying to keep our grocery bill down as much as possible to pay for all the fun we are having. One of the things is we are eating far more pork right now. It is super inexpensive at our local stores right now…
Angel Pork Chops
We spent the entire weekend in Milwaukee, Wisconsin at two Feis (rhymes with mesh). We headed home. She earned a 2nd place trophy in Treble Reel, 3rd in Traditional Set (both days), and a 3rd in Slip Jig. She was pretty pleased with her first day of dancing not so much on her second day….
Happy Easter! Top 5 Recipes for March 2018
What a week it has been. I overestimated what being away and working 12 hour days would do to me. I thought for sure I could keep up my blog while away and have no problem. Boy, was I wrong. But, I am home now and having a wonderful day with my family. I hope…
