Our good friend Kalena came over for dinner tonight.  She then stayed to watch Katie for us while we went to a play at our church.  Thanks Kalena!  For dinner I served a pork roast, roasted broccoli with garlic, and couscous.  It was a pretty good meal.  I used the same recipe for the pork that we use when we make BBQ pulled pork sandwiches.  I just stopped at the point we usually start pulling and adding BBQ sauce. The pork was actually a bit dry, which was surprising.  Usually the pork is super juicy.  It could have been cooked in the crock pot too long or simply wasn't as fatty of a cut.  Either way, it was better when we poured the pork drippings over the top:)

As for the broccoli...I had two helpings!   Katie licked a piece of broccoli and said "no like it."  I tried to get her to have some pork, but she only wanted couscous.  And, she ate it with gusto.  At least she got most of it in her mouth.  Couscous is one of the messiest foods to give a toddler.
