Girls night! Our Pampering Party


Ah girls night! A time for us ladies to get together with our closest girlfriends, crowd around good food, good music, and catch up! I really love any reason to get together with my friends, but I  especially can't wait to see them when I've had one of those 'longest days weeks ever' kind of moments. It's definitely the busy season…it's the summer season, wedding season, and baby shower season (am I right?!), so I've been traveling a ton. An awesome girls night with amazing girls was definitely in order...from left to right, this is Karissa, myself, Sarah, and Whitney. Alexandra is here too, but behind the camera.

Bacon wrapped pork tenderloin with mango chutney recipe!


Oh it tastes even better than it sounds! Welcome to day 2 of our, 6 courses in 6 days, menu extravaganza! Today we're making a bacon wrapped pork tenderloin with rosemary and cumin, a top a bed of creamy coconut rice, and then topped with mango chutney! Mango chutney! I mean, I can't even describe how delicious this dish is! When people came over I kept blurting out what it was before Fr. Leo even got a chance to plate it! So wipe the drool and grab a fork, here we go!

Leo came by to treat some friends and I to this incredible 6 course meal! So grab your appetite and lets start cookin because today is day one of six!
