Porkchops and Applesauce....Sort Of

So the Sunday Fair was not super exciting. There was some decent wine and some decent food, but for the most part, there's not much to write about. However, I had a lot of fun hanging out with Abby and Stacy after my volunteering was done. We also scored the last of the Salt Lick ribs. So that was good.

I got home in time to put together a tasty dinner:













Pork tenderloin with barbecue sauce, green beans sauteed with shallots, butter, and bacon fat, and mashed sweet potatoes topped with brown sugar bourbon butter and marshmallow creme. I managed to nail the tenderloin to the perfect temp - cooked through, but juuuuiiiccyy. Jonny actually said, "Is pork always this tender?" BOOM!

We followed that up with some baked apples:













I had some extra brown sugar bourbon butter. So I mixed that up with some crunchy peanut butter, oats, and raisins and stuffed that into cored Granny Smith Apples, sprinkled a little cinnamon-sugar on top and tossed em in the oven. They were tasty, but definitely could've used some caramel sauce or vanilla ice cream. Overall, a nice meal.

School's out tomorrow, so I probably won't be blogging again til Tuesday. See ya then.
