Monday Morning Musings

Oh my. Yesterday was IEATAPeTA day. I did have some lovely pork loin chops that were sprinkled with a bit of Target’s Market Pantry Moroccan seasoning and cooked in my non stick grill pan. We also had some braised apples and cabbage for a side dish. It was quite good!

Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day! Yay! Corned beef, carrots, potatoes, onion, and celery in the slow cooker in the morning. Add cabbage later in the day. Serve with slices or wedges of lemon. It’s sooo good with both the corned beef and the cabbage! It’s a flat cut corned beef, that cut is naturally leaner. The point cut has more fat. Remember to cut across the grain!

I also have to start working on the cake I’m baking for one cousin’s baby shower on Saturday. Raspberry filling, butter cream frosting. Still deciding on the decorations. Then a week later is another cousin’s wedding shower. Topped off with Spring Break in the final week of March. Busy times coming up.

Our condolences and prayers go out to Ron Silver’s family and friends. He died yesterday of esophageal cancer. I lost my Dad to that on Sept. 4, 2002.
