Cards






I have recently started making my own cards again. I have the Cricut and the Cuttlebug to thank for getting me in the mood. Some I like and some I don't. I cased these cards from Heartprints.com I just love Sue's cards!

What Are We Eating?

Pork Chops with Cream of Onion Soup

4-6 boneless pork chops
1 can Campbells Cream of Onion Soup
Rice
Green Beans
Grapes

Preheat oven to 350
Brown the pork chops. Spray a 9x9 glass baking dish with vegetable spray. Mix the soup with just enough milk to thin it out a bit. Spread a little of the soup in the bottom of the glass baking dish and then put the pork chops in the dish. Pour the rest of the soup mixture over the chops and bake for 30-40 minutes until tender. Serve over rice with the green beans and grapes on the side.
