The Force is with her!
Well, my cooking adventures from allrecipes.com continues! Saturday night was "treat" meal night, which means it was definately not low fat, but absolutely delicious. I can honestly say I was suprised at how good it turned out! Allen LOVED it! Grandma Downing, you will love the name of it, "Iowa Pork Steaks". Served it with garlic mashed potatoes and balsamic glazed carrots. Next time I make it, I won't put as much salt, but other than that, A++ recipe.

Second hit, Lemon Lift Ice Tea. Over the winter last year , Allen and I purchased a TON of flavored teas that we enjoyed hot. I decided while cleaning on Sunday to make a pitcher of our favorite hot tea, Lemon Lift as iced tea. It's definately by far the most amazing ice tea I've ever had and NO SUGAR!
So, the miss, BBQ Beef Burgers. Bleh. Yeah, they tasted ok, but they definately weren't worth the trouble. Seriously, it's just sloppy joes. It's a good recipe to have on hand if you ever really have a craving for sloppy joes and don't have any Manwich on hand, otherwise, it was a waste of time. I served them with seasoned oven-baked sweet potatoes fried and those were GOOD!
This Saturday Penny made her first trip to South Park and went on a walk with two other male dogs, Jessica and Alex's Butch, and Jim and Amy's dog AJ. She was outnumbered being the only female, lol; but I was really proud of her. It was a really nice time. We got to meet alot of other dogs along the way. She LOVED it, and she was pretty pooped afterwards.
Oh and Grandma and Popop finally got to see the new place. Of course boxes are still everywhere and we're not settled yet, but we will be soon! :)
Hope you all had a great weekend!
