It’s tax day, so I thought we could use a cheery song.

Monday Menu: Lemon-Nut Pork Chops
And we are back. I took last week off because I had some deadlines to meet, including finalizing the cover for Full Sail. Stay tuned for a sneak peak soon.
I hadn’t made this recipe in quite a while and had forgotten what a good combination butter, lemon and in this case, pecans are with pork. But I had some misfit lemons I bought at the store that I needed to use up and lots of pecans, so I searched through my recipes and this one popped up.
Lemon-Nut Pork Chops
- 4 boneless pork loin chops (approx. 1/2 to 3/4” thick)
- ½ tsp crushed garlic
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
- ¼ tsp lemon zest
- 1 tbsp butter
- ¼ cup finely chopped pecans or hazelnuts (the finer the grind, the better this works, if you have a coffee grinder that’s best)
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- 1 lemon, quartered

Furry Friday: Playing Outdoors
Willow and Reggie got to enjoy the warm weather this week. I had originally ordered the harness for Reggie, but Willow adapted to it very well. So now I have another ordered for Reggie so I don’t have to continue to adjust the size when I change cats.
Work Wednesday: It’s Not As Fun As It Sounds
I had kind of hoped I’d be able to skirt a sex scene in this latest novel. I had Colby and TJ in separate cities and I didn’t see any organic way to incorporate a tryst.
