[...] cheese. So I made the now-infamous pork tacos with caramelized onions that I mentioned in a previous entry on [...]

Oh man that sounds DELICIOUS. I am very amused that this was a dinner that did “not quite come together” because it would have been an A++++ Success in my house, an extra 25 minutes in the oven and all.

I am sorry you got burnt. Does sound like you had a lovely dinner after all. Some of the best recipes happen accidentally like the girl in the review who mentioned stir-frying the pork.

I am not sure I’ve ever had caramelized onions. Maybe I have and just didn’t know it.

Even when your menu plan goes wrong, it turns out great! Sounds like a new recipe for your “keeper” pile. Now, as usual, I am hungry and have nothing in the refrigerator that could equal your menu…

Where are the Wheat-Thins when I need them!

On swimmers shaving….I was a swimmer from age 5-10. Yes, all swimmers shave and they would even if the suits were cut higher. Did you notice any men with hairy pits???? Probably not. I think the only thing they don’t shave is their eye brows. We would have shaving parties before big meets (my Mom wouldn’t let me shave though)

Dinner didn’t stay a fiasco, it ended in the yummy category. You did good after all, and next time, you’ll have perfect execution. (Picturing you striking an Olympic dismount pose, complete with five weeks to pop belly and silicone oven mitts. )

Perhaps you used a pork loin, instead of a tenderloin? All I could think of while I was reading was that 20 minutes wouldn’t be enough time for pork loin to cook, but if you use a tenderloin, I can see that it wouldn’t take nearly as long.

Interestingly enough, I made some Carnitas last night, and it was very yummithy! I even had some left over after lunch today!
