Smothered Pork Chops

Porch and I scored a pretty sweet deal on pork chops the other day and I scoured the internet looking for a new recipe to try. The only criteria was that I have all required ingredients in the pantry and not require the grill as our Weber is currently buried in snow and in need of some love.

I found an interesting recipe that was too eyebrow-raising to ignore.

Don't believe me? Mayo.
Yeah. Mayo. Maybe its just us but we hadn't heard of such a thing until tonight and we've seen a lot of Chopped. Just sayin'.

Each chop gets covered in a teaspoon of butter and then a teaspoon of mayonnaise. We found using a marinade brush was quite helpful.  Sprinkle with seasonings of your desire,  we used Penzy's Northwoods seasoning and were pleased. The recipe called for "seasoning salt."  Cover each chop with cheddar or whatever cheese you prefer. Probably whatever you have in your fridge.  Go with it.

That's a whole lotta cheeses my friends.
Bake at 350º for 35-40 minutes and enjoy. We paired ours with noodles tossed in olive oil and sauteed bell peppers. Yum!!


The finished product.

Charlotte {9 months}

Let's just put this out there, we picked Charlotte before Charlotte was a princess.  ;)  And I'm not sure that the royal baby will ever be called Charlie or Charlie Bug and I'm even more certain that I don't care what they named their kid.  It's just about to be an amazingly popular baby name and we were TOTES ahead of that trend. Charlotte is 9 months old already! Stats Weight:  20 lbs, 12 oz (86.13 %ile) Length:  29.75 inches (98.75 %ile) Head circumference:  18.23 inches (96.69 %ile) This girl is perfect.  She is proportional and amazingly squishy. Teeth:  still just the 2 lower, but I'm confident she'll have a few top teeth soon.  She's been a drool machine lately and everything is back to being in her mouth. Charlotte likes... ... walking around the house (holding mama and daddy's fingers) ... Army crawling, especially when she can pull on the high pile carpet in her room ... those Gerber wheel treat things ... bath time ...

Charlotte's birth story

Thank goodness this isn't my 40 week update; I was really nervous that I'd have to write one of those and even possibly the dreaded 41 week update!  Today was her due date, but we got to meet her just a little early.  Charlotte Esther joined our family at 2:07am on Friday, August 8th... and changed our lives forever.  There's now a squishy baby who calls for us and loves nothing more than snuggling on our chests.  We are, in fact, living the dream.  A dream 4 years in the making and worth every moment.  My heart is so full of love for Charlotte and I am so excited to see how she grows and changes. I have always enjoyed reading the birth stories of my blogger friends' babies and felt it gave me hope as it was the final moment in the battle against infertility, the crossing of a finish line.  So today, in celebration of love and this chubby cheeked baby girl, I share with you the story of Charlotte's birth.

Momma K

It's true.  I love my mom.  She's my best source of advice & wisdom, even though it took me roughly 20 years to figure that out.  I just wanted to take a quick second and thank her for all that she's done for me and especially for the things she didn't do for me.  =)  I wouldn't be the person I am today without her. Love you mom! We're pretty fabulous, no?
