Love It or Hate It

Mr & Mrs Jones Juicer: Love It Or Hate It?

I love a little bit of whimsy in the kitchen, nothing too kitschy, just a little fun.

I love a little bit of whimsy in the kitchen, nothing too kitschy, just a little fun. So when I saw this Mr. & Mrs. Jones Lemon and Lime Juicer set, I was totally sold. They're really modern looking, and yet totally ridiculous. I don't know how well they work, nor do I think they're necessary (a citrus reamer works just as well, if not better), and yet I really want them.

So what do you guys think? Would you let the Joneses into your home?

Sunday Dinner: Pork Tenderloin with Asian Honey Glaze

With all this pig on the brain (it is the year of the pig (oink oink!) and the other day was national pig day), I figured today's Sunday dinner could be a nice slow roasted pork tenderloin.

With all this pig on the brain (it is the year of the pig (oink oink!) and the other day was national pig day), I figured today's Sunday dinner could be a nice slow roasted pork tenderloin. I really enjoy a good tenderloin - although I must admit, the size and shape of them are sort of odd and creep me out if I think too hard about it - I know it's unappetizing to think this, but don't they sort of look like large slimy slugs... Anyways, I try not to think about it for too long because they can be super tasty. The best part about a pork tenderloin is that it is pretty simple to do. As long as you don't overcook it (here's where a reliable oven thermometer comes in handy), it can be nice and juicy and delicious. Since we're still within the 15 days of Chinese New Year I thought I'd give this recipe for an Asian Honey Glazed Pork Tenderloin a try. To check out the recipe, read more
