Sometimes it’s hard finding a Valentine’s Day gift for a female. With their complex personalities, you can never know what the perfect gift for her is....
This recipe is fantastic for something different to do with pork chops. We have been making a slight variation of this recipe for years. It's great to see this online! Best when served over white rice and w/french style cut string beans.


A tender and delicious bread that tastes wonderful with a tasty pasta dish.
