Easy and Delicious Dinner


  Hello all!  I hope you are having a great post Valentine's day.  I really wanted to post this recipe yesterday in lieu of Valentine's day, but things just didn't work out that way.  Anyways, I had this amazing meal the other night; a very tender pork roast cooked on the grill by my boyfriend and parmesan baked peas, carrots, and rice made by me!

  As I mentioned my boyfriend cooked the porkloin on the grill, he grilled the pork for about 2 1/2 hours and it was so good! As far as I know he only put two types of spices on the pork: McCormick Chicago Steak seasoning & McCormick N'Orleans Cajun seasoning.

  The other yummy part of the meal was the baked parmesan peas, carrots, and rice.  It's such a simple recipe: Small frozen bag of peas, small bag baby carrots, 3 boil-n-bags of rice, 2 tsp garlic, 1 tbsp butter, & 1 cup parmesan.  I cooked the rice in the microwave for 10 minutes, I also cooked the carrots and peas in the microwave for 10 minutes.  Next, I mixed all of the ingredients together in a 8 x 8 pan( sprinkled some cheese on top) and put it in the oven on 400 degrees for 30 minutes.
  I really hope you try this meal, it really is delicious and not expensive at all.  As a matter of fact I got a great deal on a 3lb porkloin at my local grocery store, originally priced for $22 and I got it for $10!  If you try out these recipes leave a comment and let me know what you think, I hope you enjoy!

Things I'm Obsessed with...

Things I’m Obsessed with at the Moment…   When I’m not picking toys up off the floor or cooking a dinner that most likely won’t get eaten by my two picky eaters, I love to shop!   Shopping is one of my favorite hobbies. (I keep a budget, I swear!)   One of my favorite stores to shop at is Target, I am proud to say my daughters have come to love Target just as much as I do!   Every item on the list below is from Target, although you can find similar items at other stores.   I am not affiliated with Target in any way, just a huge fan! Kimono- I have wanted a Kimono for the longest time now and finally found one that I absolutely love and it was on sale for $16 (a little more than I’d like to pay, but the best price I’ve found so far).   Kimonos are not only stylish, but so comfortable, and you can dress them up or down. Carafe- I have mentioned the carafe before in another post I did, Amazing Mothers Day Gifts.   Carafes are great!   They help to keep drinks, such as

Pancakes for Dinner

  I have never been a morning person, I'd much rather stay up all night cozy on the couch watching tv and then sleeping in until 12 in the afternoon ( of course having kids these days I'm lucky if I get to sleep until 9am).  Needless to say I am not much of a breakfast eater or cooker, it's not that I don't like breakfast, I'm just never up in time for it or I don't feel like cooking it (even though it's super easy to cook).   Though my kids may just have to suffer through frozen breakfasts or cereal, every once in a while I get the breakfast cooking bug and make them a bit of a feast.  My favorite time of day to eat breakfast is dinner time, I don't know why but breakfast just tastes better then.  The other night I got the urge to make breakfast, so I cooked bacon, scrambled eggs with cheddar cheese, hash browns, and pancakes. *How I cooked it all-  I cooked the bacon on the griddle first, so that I could use the hot grease from the griddle whil

Amazing Mothers Day Gifts

Amazing Mothers Day Gifts   Hey Mommas!  Mother’s day is right around the corner (May.14) and we could all use a little gift inspiration for that amazing mom, mother-in-law, or grandma in our lives.  So, this year instead of getting mom the same old bouquet of flowers or a box of chocolates, give mom something she will not only love, but she will actually use.  I have compiled a list of Mothers day gifts that can be bought or DIYed, so you don't have to worry about breaking the bank! "Give Mom a Gift as Amazing as She is." 1.       Carafe-  A carafe filled with moms favorite wine is a perfect gift!   If mom is not a wine drinker, you can always make her some infused water with fruit; which is very refreshing on a hot day!  (I bought the cute flamingo carafe at Target for only $3!   If you are crafty you can always buy a carafe without a picture and personalize it for mom yourself.) 2.       Cutting Board- For the mom who loves to cook,
