Tasty Tips from Tina - September 2008
September 10, 2008
Thank you again for all the wonderful comments, emails and suggestions. I get so excited when someone lets me know that they have tried the recipes and have enjoyed them. I think my family will be happy when the zucchini crops finally dry up. It seems like everything I cook has zucchini or squash in it.
The kids are getting ready to go back to school and in our house that means the kids are going to turn my husband and me into a taxi service. Mom, take me to the football game..Dad, pick me up from practice..well you get the picture. But I have to admit I absolutely love it even though it makes planning dinners a challenge. With both of us working by the time Friday gets here I don’t even want to think about cooking dinner. I remember one Friday night I was at the stove cooking and there was a knock at my door. I yelled for them to come in. It was the Rocky’s delivery girl holding a pizza. I said hi, she said hi and she looks at me kind of funny. “Mrs. Terpko, what are you doing?” she asked. “I’m cooking,” I said. Then I asked her what she was doing. She told me they had a pizza without a name on it and since it was Friday night they just assumed it was mine. Ok, so I’m not going to get voted “Mother of the Year”. But it was a wake up call that maybe it was time to pull out the crock pot and learn how to use it.
I want to thank one of our readers who suggested a crock pot recipe. Great idea! So our recipe this month is going to be Pork Roast with Sweet Potatoes and Harvest Cider.
