It is nice to have a day off in the middle of the week. I got some returns done as well as some other shopping. Pork tenderloin with pineapple was on the menu for the day, cooked in my new slow cooker of course. The slow cooker is very large and makes me wonder how that will affect how often we use it. The smaller one made just enough food for pat and I. This one would cook allot more. it's too bad we can's get a smaller pot for the bigger crock pot, hopefully it will not dry out the smaller portions and it will be just as useful as the smaller one. I got the larger one to do roasts or whole chickens, not thinking about the smaller meals we normally cook in it.
The rest of the day was spent watching the outdoor hockey game and the Rose bowl. Watching the outdoor hockey game made me wish that we would have gone this year as well. Last year's game was great, though the weather was not ideal. They had to clean off the ice more often then normal making it a very long game. This year it was windy and cold but the ice did not interrupt the game. The wind helped make it a fairly high scoring game (6-4), unfortunately the teams took turns scoring making it slightly less exciting. In the end I do like the outdoor games, they just have extra excitement!
The Rose bowl was not a close game so I watched pieces. The highlights of the game were the announcers announcing to the world that someone should tell Penn State that they are not playing Purdue (we were bad this year but that is HARSH!). And another announcer commenting on how one of the players (SC) looks great in the uniform, he just fills it in just right. There were a few great throws and catches but the announcing was strange. It made watching the not so close game worth it.
I have to work tomorrow but it is only one day. Then I get a nice relaxing weekend. As a bonus all the shopping/returns are done.
