One of my goals for the new year is to cook at least one new recipe each week. This week, after browsing food network, I chose a recipe for pork chops with apples and garlic smashed potatoes. I put two pictures below, one of the food network picture and one of how mine turned out (mine is the one with green beans). The husband, C, said that he thought it was pretty good. I think he may have been trying to avoid hurting my feelings. I liked it well enough, but I probably won't make it again. It was very sweet. Maybe if I could choose something else to add at the end instead of the apple cider... The garlic smashed potatoes were very tasty! I will be making them again. This was the first time I have ever used fingerling potatoes. C said he thought they looked like something in baby O's diaper (pre-smashing!). He also says this any time I eat guacamole.
On another note, I finished week two of couch to 5k today. I felt so proud that I ran all the 90 second intervals, even though I felt like I would pass out. I am starting week three tomorrow after work. I am nervous about jogging for three minutes straight. Hopefully I will continue to avoid any major accidents on the treadmill!
Happy Sunday!
