And now for dinner
I know, I know–it’s not pie. It’s Beef and Broccoli. But it’s seriously delicious! And healthy! I mean, look at this That’s a lot of vegetables, my friend.

And now for something completely different
Name that movie! The blog world has gone pumpkin crazy. Pumpkin muffins, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin cake, pumpkin ravioli and even pumpkin macaroni. I love it, but Nick swears he just doesn’t like pumpkin. Sad face for me. So instead of a pumpkin recipe, I bring you pork! Sweet and sour pork. It’s so sad that…
