Wednesday already?


This week is flying by for me! Happy Hump Day, mommies!

Happy Mom Goal


Pamper your feet today! Let them soak in a warm bath with sea salts, clip and file your toe nails and follow with a cute coat of nail color. Then give them a nice rub down with some yummy smelling lotion (or have your husband or kids do it!) Ahhhhhhhh! Feels great!


Happy Kid Goal



Make some crafts for the 4th of July with your kids today! Even if it's just drawing a picture of the flag. Display your projects on the refrigerator or somewhere else in your house where they will be noticed. There are some great ideas on THIS SITE.





Happy Husband Goal



Get out a deck of cards or another game tonight and just play. It's nice to have fun with your husband after the kids are asleep and you can just be together.



Happy House Goal



I'm working on my bathroom right now, so I'm gonna drag you all down with me! Not just the basic weekly stuff like scrubbing the toilets... I mean the whole sha-bang: cleaning out and organizing all the drawers and cupboards, washing the walls and baseboards, replacing the shower curtain with a new one, etc; It will feel great after we're done!


Dinner Tonight


Asian Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Pineapple

2 (3/4 pound) pork tenderloins

Marinade
1 (6 ounce) can pineapple juice
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt (kosher)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups peeled and cubed fresh pineapple (1-inch pieces)
8 wooden or metal skewers

Place pork tenderloins in resealable plastic bag; set aside. In small bowl, combine marinade ingredients; pour over pork. Seal bag; refrigerate for at least 1 hour to marinate, or up to 24 hours to enhance flavor.

Preheat grill to medium-hot. When ready to grill, remove pork from marinade and place on grill. Cook, covered, for about 10 minutes per side or until the internal temperature of pork is 160 degrees F. Meanwhile, place the pineapple chunks on the skewer; place on grill during the last 6 minutes of grilling time, turning after 3 minutes. To serve, slice pork into 1/2-inch slices (medallions) and serve with grilled pineapple.
