Easy BBQ Pulled Pork.

I'm a vegetarian, but my FI is a meatatarian. I usually cook 50/50 vegetarian meals and meat meals during the week. When I cook meals with meat, I make a veg dish and cook the meat in another pan and add it to Mike's plate while serving. THIS is his favorite of my recipes. He could seriously eat it everyday for a week. I love making it for him because its CHEAP and easy. When I make this for him, I usually just throw a veggie burger in the microwave and put it on a bun for myself. I hadn't made it in a while because we haven't had room in our freezer for a pork roast.

Prep Time: 5 mins before cooked, 5 mins after cooked

Cook Time: 8 hours

Price: About $10

Pork Roast: $7

BBQ Sauce: $1

Rootbeer: $0.67

Buns: $1

BBQ Pulled Pork

Feeds.. a lot. LOL.

Ingredients:

• Approx 5lb Pork Roast (I use the picnic roast because it's boneless and comes in halves)
  
• 1/2-1 liter of Rootbeer (I just use Walmart brand, it's cheap and gets the job done)
  
• Brown Sugar
  
• EVOO
• BBQ sauce
  
• Burger buns
  

Directions:

• Picnic roast usually comes wrapped in a net, remove from net. If it is not already cut into two pieces, slice roast down the middle to form two halves.
• Rinse pork under cold water to wet surface.
• Rub on a little EVOO and enough Brown Sugar to cover.
• Place roast halves side by side in crockpot
• Cover with Rootbeer. You can use as must as you'd like. I prefer to cover the roast completely.

COOK ON HIGH FOR 8-9 HOURS

• Once roast is done, turn Crockpot OFF.
• Remove pot (using oven mits!) and drain excess Rootbeer. You can either dump it, or drain into another container to use with BBQ sauce.
• Place pot back in Crockpot and turn onto "Warm"
• Shred pork with a fork. It will be tender enough to fall right apart with little effort.
• Mix in your BBQ sauce

I usually serve this on buns w/ garlic spread for easy handling, but you can serve it on it's own, as a side dish, however you'd like.

M.A.C. Haul

So since I lost all my brushes (yeah, still can't find them). I decided to do a pretend MAC haul and see what the damage would be. It's BAD. I'm so lucky that it's dark right now and I can't find my purse because my credit card would be abused. Without any shadows, pigments, paint pots, or anything extraordinary, including pro discount it comes to :drum roll: $370. Hmph. I need a job. SOON.

What Not To Wear..

Carmindy drives me nuts. She is a shittastic makeup artist. I could do her job 100% better than her. She makes her clients look like 2 cent hookers. It's horrible. It's like a 13 year old trying to put on Mommy's makeup. Really, awful. How can people like her make it, but I can't?! Ughh.

AW: Shoes

My free ceremony shoes just came in the mail. I wanted shimmery purple flats with some gems, and found some on Amazon for $7 from Target. I had an Amazon giftcard and boom! Please excuse chubby feet, shoe's are not broken in yet ;)

I WANT!

Giant Hostess Cupcake!

WELCOME TO MOE'S!

YES! We're pretty sure we're using Moe's as a caterer! It'll end up being around $10pp. It's 'our' place, and I'm soooo excited! We're thinking about having a Taco Bar, Fajita Bar, Mini Burritos, and Chips/Queso/Salsa/Guac, maybe some cookies :D WOO!

Having trouble..

finding a fabric that I love :/ I can't wrap the cupcake tower until I find a nice one. I went to Joann's and couldn't find ANYTHING! I did however find netting in order to make my veil :)
