PINK SATURDAY & IT"S GRILLIN' TIME!

Today is a double-decker post!

For starters 
we have our 

I was looking 
at the 
televisions
online 
everybody's favorite 
department store,
and stumbled upon this!
I went aha!
You know what this is perfect for...
Pink Saturday!



Actually, this would be pretty darn cute in my bedroom...

Which brings us to 
the second half of today's post.

Jacob prepared this 
delicious meal
for a his foods class.


He started by preparing his potatoes in tin-foil packets.
He buttered the foil so the potatoes 
would not stick.
He sliced them thin
S & P 'd them
added a pat or two of butter
and garlic powder and onion powder.
He sealed the packets 
and placed them on about a 350 degree grill
for about 30 minutes.


The pork tenderloin chops 
were seasoned with 
S & P, garlic powder
&
smoked paprika.
He placed them on the grill
in the indirect heat on the top grate
for about 20 minutes.
Or until the meat is cooked to  about 165 degrees.
They turn out so moist and tender!


Needless to say
Jacob received an "A"
on this project,
and if I have to say so myself
it was delicious!

Here is that 
yummy cheesecake

Trader Joe's.

We topped it off with some fresh blackberries....

Wish I could say that for winter...

Foodie Friday! Fresh Spring Pasta Salad

It's Foodie Friday!

I couldn't wait
to share 
this recipe with you!

It's a very
Springy & Fresh
Pasta Salad....


Julienne  Asparagus, a Red Onion, a Yellow & Orange Pepper
into 2 inch sticks.  
I make them about the same size as Penne Pasta.
Put the asparagus aside to blanch.
Meanwhile, grill 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts 
with  S&P, Italian seasonings and Minced Garlic.

Boil the Penne to al Dente.  
The last minute -  I toss in the asparagus to blanch.


Add a palm full of Italian Seasonings, Salt & Pepper & Minced Garlic. 



Now for the Secret Ingredient...
 (besides love) 
Girard's White Balsamic
Salad Dressing.

Enjoy!

PINK SATURDAY! S*P*R*I*N*G B*R*E*A*K E*D*I*T*I*O*N


As part of my 
Spring Break
I took a little excursion
outside of my
"5 Mile Comfort Zone".

I drove.

My cousin Jody and Jacob
went along to keep me company.

Our first stop 
was an antique mall in Albertville.

Then on to the Premium Outlet Mall.
I could spend all day there.

I won't bore you with all of the details...
I'll just show you  a few of 
my Favorites from
the 
Coach Store!

We went on the right day...
50% off throughout!






On our return we stopped at
the Trader Joe's
in Maple Grove.
Jacob picked out 
a few of his favorites, too.
