Hi

Think that annoying Stew commercial on TBS 🙂 (if you don’t know what I’m talking about, youtube it, I’m sure it’s out there!)

So did you miss me?  Oh you didn’t know I was missing, other than I hadn’t been by to comment on your blogs…. Well, that’s because I pre-scheduled posts for all last week while I was on vacation.

For multiple reasons I was asked not to announce it on my blog until after I got back, so I did as I was asked.  Don’t worry I’ll get caught up on all your blogs, I promise, it just might take me a bit.  I have to get caught up on lots of things.

So I have 2,500ish photos from this trip, don’t worry I won’t share them all with you, however I’ll go through and share some of the highlights as I get through them myself 🙂  What’s really funny is my digital photo frame at work has just over 2000 photos and I told one of my co-workers I’d probably come back with every bit of that and I guess I didn’t disappoint.  I took 3 camera’s, my Nikon D5000 with a 32gb memory card, my Kodak water camera with a 16gb memory card and my Nikon Coolpix with a 2gb memory card plus I had my iPhone, hubby’s iPhone and even my mom’s iPhone which I used all of the above at one point or another.  I know, I guess I need a life maybe ;).

Anyway it’s Monday so I wanted to participate in the Hunk of Meat Monday so here’s my recipe.  Mom made it a week ago Friday and that’s what we had before we left for Hawaii (if you didn’t get it by my sweatshirt)

You had to go back and look at the sweatshirt didn’t cha?

So on with Hunk of Meat Monday brought to you by Beyer Beware:

Crock-Pot Spare Ribs

Ingredients:
Boneless Beef ribs covered in Chili Lime Rub (all sides).  Place in the crockpot.  Then cover in enough beef broth to just cover (about 3/4-1cup).  She also added some Rotel and mushrooms (both optional).  Let it simmer all day on low.  Then pull the meat out after 6-8 hrs and let the meat rest.  In the mean time thicken up the sauce with some cornstarch to make a gravy.  Then mom made mashed potatoes.  So to serve, place a couple slices of bread on a plate.  Shred the meat and place on the bread.  Then serve with potatoes and cover all with gravy.  Can we say YUM!!??!!??
