Normally gray skies don't do it for me... Actually, I'm usually pretty blah on days when the sun's not shining. Today though, I'm really enjoying it! I'm hunkered down at my house with the space heater on, blankets on my lap, looking out at the snow, and just generally feeling pretty cozy. I'm having a lazy, slow day and I'm enjoying every second of it. I'm currently planning out dinner for my boyfriend and I for the night. I'm thinking warming foods - baked brussels sprouts and red peppers with garlic and salt and pork chops. I've never made pork chops before, so I'm scouring the internet for delicious, healthy recipes. I'm curious to see how whatever I end up making tastes. :) Does anyone have any good pork recipes they can share?
Hope you're enjoying a slow, lazy snow day too.

Oh, sorry I saw this too late to take a pic! It wouldn't have been too impressive anyway. It was good for the most part, but pork apparently isn't something I love. It was a little too dry for me, but I think if I'd had different ingredients, it would've come out better. One recipe called for apples and onions and I think those would've helped with the moisture. Another time maybe I'll try that again! I used salt, pepper, garlic and red pepper flakes and used Andee's cooking directions! Thanks Andee for helping out! :)
I'll try the apple one soon. One of my customers at Starbucks said that she normally has her Christmas shopping DONE by this time! She says she buys throughout the year when she sees something for the right person, and sometimes even wraps it right then! I'd need a spreadsheet to know what I bought for who and how much I've spent. Man oh man, that's organized! Andee, Oh okay. Is a cast iron pan really all it's cracked up to be? What's the difference between that and a normal, run-of-the-mill pan?
