FLOP OF A WEEK
Well this week was a sorta flop lol, with daughter in reading university still, the boys and I stayed out a few days to shop lol. I never spent much but more then i should of and more then planned lol.
Also the street preformers is on this weekend in Grande Prairie. It started on Friday and end Sunday at 5. SO i took the kids on Friday right after i picked daughter up from her graduation of the reading university. The kids were having a good time and we were not keeping a eye on the clock lol and next thing you knew and it was 5 already lol. So i called hubby and we decided to meet at Wendys for supper before he had to go to his part time job.
Today I worked at the farmers market till 3 and got some not so good but free goodies lol, now i know why they were giving them away lol. The one thing i am shocked at is that people buy her baking week after week. I may be a little biast but man my cooking is better lol at least it has some taste. But anyways after i got home hubbie had to go to work so the boys and I decided to go to the festivle again( daughter was at a sleep over)Well the kids got hungry so we shared 2 hot dogs and then they thought that they should have some mini donuts lol. I am so glad that they didn;t want everything and they had a good time.
Next week i am hoping that it is a better week and i stick to the plan and stay well with in budget.

FLOP OF A SUPPER
Well tonights supper was the cranberry pork and well like the title says it was a flop. It smelled good when i was preparing it and after a full day out it smelled awsome when i opened the door. But when i tasted it it was eh lol it was dry and sweet and a put in the never again pile lol
The recipie is as follows
2 pieces of pork tenderloin
a can of cranberry sauce, i used the jelly
3/4 of the same can of chili sauce, not the one in the ethnic ilse
2 table spoons of brown sugar
Place the tenderloin in the slow cooker, i cut them in half, and mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Pour mixture over pork and put lid on. Cook for 7 to 8 hours on low.
I think you can actually double the pork in this recipie as there was lots of mixture.
I think if i had more pork and cooked it a bit less it might have been a worthy recipie lol
Tryer beware
Have a good night everyone
