I am a foodie. I love different flavors, so when my husband arrived to the United States, I was excited to share with him all the flavors of California. He didn't like my food at first. I tried recipe after recipe for him, and night after night the response was mediocre at best. I soon tired of cooking food that went to waste because he didn't like it. I stopped cooking and I love to cook. But cooking is no fun when there isn't any enjoyment when it is eaten. After about 3 years of marriage, he began to experiment with food. He started trying different items and became willing to eat things he had never eaten. AND, he started to like food. Yay- and with that, I started to cook again. Now, he always asks me, "When did you learn to cook?" As if this is a new thing for me. My answer- "It isn't when did I learn to cook, it is when did you learn to eat?" This blog is a collection of recipes that I have created. I make new things all the time, but I don't write anything down and then I either forget that I made it, or I forget how to make it. I don't know if anyone is out there that will read this- but if you do, I hope you enjoy trying my recipes. Buen Provecho!

Pulled Pork Sandwich

So this feels like a duh... but I am trying to remember the things that I make because I get myself in a rut that I can never think of new things to make. Writing down what I cook, the new things I create, and the old things I haven't done in awhile will help me to widen my repertoire.
I bought some country style ribs at the market in a gigantic pack and needed to split them up into different types of dishes so we wouldn't get tired of eating the same thing over and over.

I coked the ribs in the crockpot with:
my favorite (dry) bbq seasoning,
garlic powder,
bay leaf,
chicken broth,
onion powder,
a little Worcestershire sauce.
It cooked on high until it was falling apart.
I shredded it, added more of the bbq seasoning and a little of my favorite sauce.
Then, we had it on rolls as a sandwich.

We ate it with cheesy potatoes.
