A Confession

We have had several days in a row of less than 90 degree temperatures, and I am loving it. Time to pull out jeans and a sweater to throw on over a t-shirt! Sleep with the windows open.

Before I write anymore, I must make a confession. I have become addicted to Pinterest! I think I'm not alone in this addiction. In my fellow Pinterest addicts defense, there is a wealth of information out there. Things that you can really use - amazing recipes, tutorials for sewing/crafts, recommendations of products, books to read, decorating tips and ideas. And that's just a few of the things to be found.

As the weather begins to cool off, I like to pull my crock pot out of the pantry and use it for some yummy suppers. Our family has found a recipe (on Pinterest) that is becoming one of our favorites - and we've used it for pork chops and chicken.

Creamy Ranch Pork (or Chicken)
6 pork chops or chicken breasts
2 cans cream of chicken soup (or cream of mushroom soup)
1 package of Ranch dressing mix

Put the pork chops or chicken in the crock pot. Mix the 2 cans of soup with the Ranch mix and pour over the meat. Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 hours.

We served this with Pioneer Woman's mashed potatoes (delish!!), green beans and squash.

Enjoy the cooler temps and spending time on Pinterest.
