Hope Everyone Had A Happy Easter Weekend!!

Apr17

How cute are these Easter treats?? I didn’t get to make the treat I wanted, but will get to it soon enough 🙂

Our son spent the afternoon ‘hunting’ for eggs at our home ❤

And as he was having fun, we had a pork tenderloin cooking in the CrockPot. The recipe was simple, which was a must, and it was all placed into the pot in minutes. I cooked it for 6hrs, but next time, I’ll probably check the temp around 4hrs. The only things I did differently, is use fresh sliced onion, placed underneath the tenderloin and used real garlic. I’m glad I did too. The meat itself fell apart, and was flavourful with the onions and garlic. We had herb and garlic (thanks to Boursin!!) mashed potatoes and honey balsamic roasted brussels sprouts along with it – yummy!!

Will definitely make this recipe again…

Bon Appetit Everyone!! 🙂 

Afternoon at the Brampton Fall Fair – September 15, 2012

Sep16

So, today we spent the afternoon at the Brampton Fall Fair. It’s a small fair, but still a good way to spend the afternoon with your family. The weather was perfect as well…not too hot and not too cool either. Was very comfortable for walking around, photographing the grounds and noshing a bit as well 🙂

Ah…kettle corn. No fair is complete without it!! Alas, we skipped buying any, but I couldn’t help taking a photo of it – especially with the multicoloured variety 🙂

This food stall look familiar?! Yep!! It’s the same Hank Daddy’s we tried out at the CNE 🙂 This time though, we tried their smoked sausage, with sauteed onions and Carolina mustard sauce. Now, it doesn’t look like much, but the sausage was amazing. It had that, fantastic snap when you bite into it, and was super juicy on the inside. The Carolina mustard sauce was sweet, and if you ate it on its own, it would seem even more so. But, in combination with the onions and sausage, it paired up really well with the savory flavours of both. I would definitley recommend you give them a try, if you ever come across their truck/trailer. Right now they only do the Fair and Festival circuit, so if you’d like to find out where they’ll be next, just start following them on Twitter (@HankDaddysBBQ). They tweet which upcoming events they’re going to be at 🙂

Other then that, I got me ANOTHER candy apple, as the last one was a dud 😦 First, whoever made the last one, didn’t wait long enough for the candy to harden, before putting the plastic wrap around it. So, when I went to take the wrapper off, basically all the candy went with it…BOO!! 😦 What was worse, was the apple itself, wasn’t the best either. So, hopefully this new candy apple will make up for it!!

Bon Appetit Everyone 🙂
