Blue Ribbon Award Winner

I got an email yesterday from a reader from Ohio (hi Nina!) who entered My Favorite Pork Tenderloin into her county cooking competition.

She placed 1st place and received a blue ribbon--for my recipe! How awesome is that?

You can read about it HERE in the Springfield News-Sun.

Thanks Nina and congratulations on your win!

    How cool for you to see one of your original recipes win a prize! That is quite an honor. I use pork tenderloin all the time and I've made it many ways-- Asian, French, BBQ...but inserting garlic cloves is pretty darn clever. I'll have to thaw out the one in my freezer and see if I can win a prize.
    Congrats to both of you.

    Wow Congratulations! You deserve a lot of ribbons for your fantastic recipes. I just discovered your Strawberry Romanoff recipe. I make crepes all of the time and am so excited for this topper. Do you think I could substitute the brandy for something else?

    Hi Kasha!

    Thanks for stopping by and for the compliments- I appreciate them. If you don't want to use brandy, just omit it and use a little vanilla (about 1/2 tsp) instead.

    Hope you enjoy it. It would be fantastic on crepes- yum!
