Happy Weekend!

Our girls have had the past week off from school for MEA (MN Education Association) break. So the girls and I have been spending a few days with my parents in South Dakota. And Hatti and I took in her first college visits, spending an afternoon at NDSU and another afternoon at SDSU. It's so hard to believe we're at this stage in life with our oldest daughter already. One foot in front of the other, right?!

Thank you so much for joining us here each week, for reading the blog, and for following along on social media. We are grateful for your company.

Wishing you an awesome weekend!
Brenda

NEW: On The Blog This Week

Isn't this Mustard Pork Loin Roast a beauty?!

It's wonderfully tender and flavored with an ultra tasty mustard sauce. This dish is easy enough for a weeknight meal and definitely pretty enough to serve for holidays and special occasions.

CRUMBS: What We Made Recently

I can't resist making a few batches of these Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins this time of year. They are warmly spiced and super moist, a delicious baked treat for fall and winter. I always get asked for this recipe!

Get the recipe here.

I'm not kidding when I say this recipe for Pickled Red Onions is on regular repeat around here. I just made another jar this past weekend, when Blake smoked a pork shoulder on the Big Green Egg. I used a mandolin to get the onion slices super thin this time. LOVE!

My family loves this bright and mustardy South Carolina Style Mustard Barbecue Sauce recipe. It's from my friend Shaina from foodformyfamily.com. The perfect sauce for that pork shoulder we smoked last weekend!

These Marshmallow Popcorn Balls make a great Halloween treat. They're sweet and salty, crunchy and chewy. And they’re soft enough to be pulled apart with your fingers. Incredibly perfect!
