Wonderful Dinner and a New Place to Sleep

So last night I tried another take on the LA Times Five Spice Pork Belly recipe for the year of the pig. It was a delicious meal, so I have decided to share to altered recipe with you.

Five Spice Pork Loin

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon chinese five spice powder

2 pounds pork loin

1. Combine the first three ingredients and mix them together until completely dissolved.

2. Put the pork loin in a ziploc bag and pour the marinade over it, then seal it up and make sure every inch of it is covered. Put it in the fridge for at least 4 hours (I did 5 1/2) turning every so often.

3. Heat the oven at 450 degrees. Roast until the thermometor comes to about 180 and take it out. Let it rest for 10 minutes.

4. Enjoy!

Anyway, with that out of the way, my dad (since he works at Fox Studios) bought me the comforter from the movie The Adventures of Ford Fairlane. It is pretty cool, black with rainbow squiggles (kinda) all over it with like a red velveteen border. You would have to see it in order to not think it was cheesy, and I don't feel like taking another picture, I've been taking pictures all day. I did hear though that the movie was a flop, but of well. I now own a piece of history on my bed. Wow, what an achievement. Haha, whatever.

Arg!

This is so cool...I'm in love. With pirate bread.

What, you ask? Well, let me explain. You see, I am addicted to Taste Spotting. I don't know if any of you know it, but I love looking over sweet, little crunchlets of food and their makers. So when I stumbled upon theis skull and crossbones toast! How completely wild is that!

Now, I'm not all that punk anymore, but I'm still a wild child on the inside, and this fits my cravings for crazy food all right! (Image taken from taste spotting)

Anyway, to get back to my life, I took Blue in to get fixed today and whoops, wrong monday! It's next monday for sure. I also went to see Breach, which was a fantastic movie based on a true story. I recommend completely.

Edit: I guess I should say where this toaster is located. It is a German product, and can be found here at Tom Wet.

Evil Man no more...

Well it's monday, so I guess Blue and I have made it through the weekend. Blue really misses Quincey, he whines sometimes. He's also really nervous when I leave, I guess he looks for me a little.

The other dogs, Max and Murphy, were at first unsure of what Blue was. They tried to attack him on several occasions. The first day it was like, "Oh crap, why did I bring him?" but now it's all good. Murphy still barks at him in a mean way, but not often.

It is cold out here, but it's not as cold as I expected. In the morning I can walk Blue outside to go potty in just my pjs. But at night it is absolutely freezing. Blue has had a couple accidents because he does not want to go outside, but I'm sure it will change with time.

Walking Blue out here is almost magical. The trees are beautifully crooked, without leaves attached. The houses are all mostly two stories, and they look so old fashioned. There are pools of ice laying in the road, it's just so nice to see a change.

And lastly, Aunt Audrey, Bob and I went to go see Notes on a Scandal yesterday. It was a pretty good movie. Strange, sometimes creepy, but good.

See you soon!
