Inspired by Daddy in the kitchen

November 19, 2009 • Hello. I am currently out of the country and unable to respond to comments and e-mails. Rest assured, however, that future posts have been scheduled so new recipes will go live almost everyday during my absence. I'll be back soon with lots of stories and photos. Ciao for now! ~ Connie

Tequila porkloin

Now, this is a first — the first submission inspired by something that my husband cooked. The dish? Tequila Pork Loin. The contributor — Emy Medina. Here’s her message:

At 58 I’m probably your oldest fan. I’m married with 3 grown-up children who are all on their own and a proud grandma of an adorable 6 mos. old boy. I’m still employed as a critical care nurse. Raising 3 children with different food preferences was quite a challenging job—whew—I don’t know how I made it but I survived.

I really enjoy your website, not only because of the recipes but the funny stories about your family and pets, fantastic photos and some interesting discussions about just “everything” in general. I get other peoples’ perspective on how they view the world specially the younger generation. Isn’t it strange that I connect with other people by way of cooking?

Thank you again for sharing your GIFT.!!!!

Tequila porkloin

Last Sunday our Ina turned 90. My sister was in-charge of the food but I made something different and special. I cooked Speedy’s Tequila Porkloin. Instead of apricot jam I used my homemade orange marmalade. It was a success!!!! Luckily, my niece was able to take some photos before it’s all gone. I snipped rosemary from a newly bought gallon container plant that will find a new home in my small garden and used it as garnishing.

Attached are pictures of the dish. I’m proud of me!! Thanks Speedy.

Thank you, Emy. And I know what you mean by connecting with people through cooking. I really have to show this to Speedy. He is sooo going to be tickled pink. I hope it encourages him to cook more real food and feed us less Spam and hotdogs on Sundays.
