Late Week Dinner

 

For dinner this evening I
made Pork Roast Sliders.
When we were at the store,
they had the roast on sale-
I got a 1/2 pound roast for
the two of us. Mind you at
the time I had no idea what
I was going to do with it but
when I got home I came up
with the menu using stuff
I had in the freezer.
I cooked the roast yesterday
right on the stove, I let it get
real tender and then I pulled
it off the stove, let it set and
then shredded it with a fork.
I also saved some of the broth
to keep it moist for when I
reheated it tonight.

Menu

Pork Roast Sliders
Tator Tots
Corn on the Cob

I had a package of Rhodes
rolls, corn and tator tots
in the freezer.
I also heated some BBQ
sauce for Mr. Ken

Simple, easy and yummy
plus there was enough
for leftovers!

The Word

                  THE word for 2012

                  THE word for 2013

As you can see my word is:
JOY. I chose it in honor of
a friend of mine. It is her
name and she was a joy to
be around! She has been
an angel in Heaven for
fourteen years now.
During the Christmas
season I have something
that says JOY on it to remind
me of her.
As I was thinking about a new
word for this year my eyes
landed on the Christmas blocks
that say "JOY." My lightbuld went
on and I thought--that's my
word for the year!
My goal is to find joy in the
little stuff, the BIG stuff and
the stuff in between.

May 2013 bring LOTS of
JOY to all of us.
