Apple Maple Glazed Pork Tenderloin

November 21, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 26 Comments

Bonjour,

I had quite a busy day today!  I sent my cookies out for the Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap today, yah!!  I’ll tell ya, packaging took me longer than baking the cookies!  The worse part about the swap is shipping the cookies.  I cross my fingers they make it safely, I kind of packaged them tight, so I hope my receivers don’t get mad if they can’t get the box of cookies out of the box.  It was a struggle putting it all together!!  After that I made a frappe and then conquered my front room.  Finally after talking about it for what two or three days?  It was a task well done!!  After that I made this for dinner.

But before I get to dinner, I thought I would share with you my new blogging prop set-up.  I bought this shelf from Target online.  It was only $89.00 and if you have a red card debit card it’s free shipping and 5% off.  I highly recommend if you’re a Target shopper to get the Red Card debit card.  You only need to bring a check with you and they take all your info and in two weeks you get your shiny new card in the mail, oh and there is no charge for the card or credit check.  🙂

Here is a picture of the shelve.


The shelf is packed!!!  I still had to find room for my extras, like glasses, but this will do for now.  Here is the top of the shelf.  I put my pizza stone, griddle and tea towels and place mats for easy grabbing.

 The top shelf has all of my bowls and little accessories.  This was a problem area since I have so many little things.  I really need another shelf.

The middle shelf has all of my plates and colorful straws.  I love the straws, they are so pretty.

The bottom shelf has a good portion of my cookbooks.  When I participated in the Emeril Lagasse’s Serious Sandwich group, they sent me all of Emerils Cookbooks.  Score!!!  However, that is a lot of cookbooks.  I know I have other cookbooks hidden throughout my house,

So this is my front room.  It’s a tight squeeze, but eventually I want to get rid of the couch and maybe get a desk so I can work in here instead of at the kitchen table.  It’s looking like I may not have room for a Christmas tree.

After I finished my room, I went out and got the mail.  The box was hard to open and I can see why.  I feel like I won the magazine lottery.  Look at them all. I never get this much mail!  I guess the companies are really gearing up for Christmas.  At least I have some reading material before I go to bed.  Oh and see the little yellow runner next to the magazines?  I got that to!  That was a nice surprise!!

After my busy day the last thing I felt like doing was making dinner!  Blah!  But I promised my Husband Pork Tenderloin for dinner.  I debated on how to make it, but I didn’t feel like baking it because the pan gets so icky, from the glaze sticking to it, so I decided to try making pork a different way.  I seared it first in a pan then added my glaze, covered it and then cooked it for about 7 minutes.  Awesome way to cook pork.  It was so tender and the best part, no mess!!!

The glaze for the pork screams Fall!! It’s so good that you could lick the plate clean!!  I’m not kidding about that!!  The sauce is amazing!!  It’s made with apple cider, maple syrup, onion powder and thyme.  Poured it over the pork and cooked it together.  Then to thicken up the sauce, I removed the pork and added a cornstarch mixture into the sauce and whisked it until it was thick and almost caramelized   Perfection!!!  The sauce was sweet but not overly sweet.  I used spiced Apple Cider that I picked up from Trader Joe’s, but apple juice would work too!!

The pork took about 15 – 20 minutes to make.  Not to bad, quick and easy is how I like it!  My Husband liked it too!!  I have a couple of pieces left and I think I’m going to make a sandwich with it tomorrow.  It’s so tender that I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t make a great sandwich.  I have a sandwich recipe floating around my head.  If I make it, I’ll share it with you!

    This looks terrific. Pinned this one. I am planning our traditional family Thanksgiving menu. Turkey, corn bread dressing, gravy, cranberry relish. the other sides that everyone requests are broccoli rice and mashed potatoes for Andy. Deviled egg score Amy. Fruity turkey made by the granddaughters by,skewering grapes and forming the tail feathers of a turkey inserted into a pineapple body. A pear is the head. I ramble on. Love your shelf idea. Happy Thanksgiving.

      They didn’t have the shelf in white at the store, so I ordered it online. It’s way easier then lugging it around, but they do have it in espresso I think at the store. If you check it out online, it will tell you if your store carries it! For $89.00 I think it’s a bargain!! Have a great day!!

It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I don’t know what it is, but I love to give pumpkins a bath. Don’t they look cute bathing in the sunlight with bubbles around them? lol
🎃
There are two methods that I have used  in the past; the chlorine bath and the dish soap bath. This is what I have learned.
🎃
My favorite and only way I wash pumpkins now is using dish soap.  It gets rid of the sap and makes them clean. I soak my pumpkins for about 20 minutes. The pumpkins will last until December. Plus if you keep your pumpkins after the holidays it will decay and grow pumpkins the following year. Plus it’s safe for animals that may nibble on your pumpkin.
🎃
The chlorine bath method will make your pumpkins last possibly up to a year. They take very long to break down and I never got my pumpkins to seed themselves. Plus it is not safe for animals in my opinion. Though Clorox Bleach says it’s safe, they just taste salty.
🎃
The key to washing pumpkins is to make sure that you get the area around the stem dry. You don’t want water around the stem. This could make your pumpkin rot sooner. So after the bath, dry your pumpkins off very good. 
🎃
Did you get your pumpkins yet?
.
PS if you are in the Bay Area, I highly recommend going to @threenunnsfarm to get your pumpkins. They have a wide variety and the pumpkins and are .75 a pound. I bought all these pumpkins for $42.

Happy spooky Thursday! I added a few touches of Ha Happy spooky Thursday! I added a few touches of Halloween in my kitchen. I don’t do much Halloween decorations, but I just love to add it to the kitchen. Every time I go to the kitchen it makes me smile.
🦇
To add Fall or Halloween you don’t need to add a lot, just a few touches here and there. I will give a full tour in stories and tag a few items. Majority of the decor came from @krumpetshomedecor and the towels and bat banner from @theblessedpeach

Have the best day!

Hello Tuesday! Hope you are doing well. It’s sta Hello Tuesday! Hope you are doing well. It’s starting to feel like Fall here in Northern California. The mornings and evenings are feeling crisp. I can’t get over that we are in the middle of September. Where did the Summer go?
🎃
I’m sharing with you the corner of my living room where I store my pumpkins that I grew before I can take them outside. It’s been too warm for them and I want them to last through October. They have been doing well, as they have been here since the middle of August. 
🎃
I’m excited because this Saturday our local pumpkin patch will be opening. They have a huge variety of pumpkins and very inexpensive too. I’ll be stocking up. I just love this time of year.
🎃
Have a wonderful day!

Happy Monday! I want to thank those who have reach Happy Monday! I want to thank those who have reached out to me asking if I am okay. I am doing just fine. I’ve taken a little break from posting here because I have been busy on the dogs Instagram page. It’s hard to keep up on both. The dog page is so busy with birthdays, events and engagement. They have a busier social life than me. 
🩵
I am sharing with you the last view of my kitchen before it is filled with Halloween. I spent 6 hours yesterday cleaning all the cabinets, appliances, sink and floor. I even did the windows. It sure tired me out. I’m not as young as I used to be. But it is so sparkly clean. I did put up my Halloween and I can’t wait to share with you. The dining room is the next room to conquer.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Hi, it’s me Samuel!! I am taking over mamas page Hi, it’s me Samuel!! I am taking over mamas page today because I got the best gift in the whole world and it even came in the mail on my birthday. How did @downlitebedding know? They are so good!
🐾
Downlite Bedding sent me the EnviroLoft® Down Alternative PrimaCool™ Cooling Comforter. Isn’t it beautiful? It’s so soft, cozy, hypoallergenic and it makes me so happy. 
🐾
The comforter is 400 thread count, it has moisture wicking and cooling technology to help regulate body temperature, which is perfect since I get warm in the summer with all my hair and I like to be cool when I’m sleeping. A big plus is the comforter is white, I hide very well in it. It’s hard to see me. So mama can’t catch me on her bed. 
🐾
The EnviroLoft® Down Alternative PrimaCool™ Cooling Comforter also has a Scotchguard stain release fabric and machine wash and dry. It’s truly an amazing comforter.
🐾
Mama let me do this takeover today because she knows that I love @downlitebedding as much as she does. She said she has never seen me get so excited as I do when we get Downlite Bedding and pillows in the mail. How can I not get excited? It’s like sleeping on a cloud!
🐾
Downlite Bedding was kind enough to give us a 20% discount:  DYGEN20 
🐾
Have a great day and happy napping!
🐾
❤️Samuel

Happy Thursday! Here is a view of my garden that I Happy Thursday! Here is a view of my garden that I took a couple weeks ago. My garden really overgrew this season. I need to do some major work in it, but with the heat, it’s just unbearable to be out there too long.
🌼
I had a lot of zinnias self-seed this season which is cool, but they kind of took over. They crowded out some plants, so I need to get in there and pull some out. Plus being so crowded, they got powdery mildew. Yuck!
🌼
I’m thinking for the Fall making this area a little harvest pumpkin area. We will see. I have grand ideas in my head, but I don’t always follow through. lol
🌼
How your garden growing? I lost all my potted plants from the heat. 😩

Hello Monday! This weekend I made a little charcut Hello Monday! This weekend I made a little charcuterie setup for my husband and I. This is something that I just love to do. I could just eat this type of meal all day long. 

I am sharing the “All White Collection” from @bzaar_wholesale. Each piece to the collection is so elegant and can be used all year round and would be gorgeous around the holidays.

The tray is made of marble with beautiful gold handles. The cheese knives are gold with solid marble handles and compliments the tray perfectly.

I used the marble flower shaped bowl for putting chocolates, but would be so stunning to use on your coffee table, side table and more.

The cake stand is has a marble base with Mother of Pearl edging and has a glass lid to go over the top. I will be putting my cakes and cookies on it in the future, but for now I used it to place my bruschetta.

@bzaar_wholesale has amazing products for your home, great pricing and global shipping. The link is in my bio.

Do you like making charcuterie boards? What do you add to yours?

Hello, hello! It may be 100 degrees outside, but I Hello, hello! It may be 100 degrees outside, but I can’t resist putting out some Fall. Especially when you get new decor from @12timbers.  You would laugh if you came into my living-room. Half my room is Fall, the other half is still coastal blues. lol I’ll eventually change it all out.
🍂
Let’s talk the art work. Isn’t it stunning? My husband never says anything about my decor, but he keeps talking about how much he likes the framed art from 12 Timbers. I agree, it’s so beautiful. It reminds me of when I lived back east and we would go to Letchworth Park in NY. The colors are stunning and goes perfectly with the burnt orange color that I’m using this season.
🍂
I just adore the wooden cut out pumpkins from @12Timbers. When I look at them they make me smile. The orange wooden leaf is the perfect piece to bring everything together. This gets me so excited for Fall decorating. Now to finish the rest of the living room.
🍂
12 Timbers is so kind to give me a discount code. It’s good until Saturday at midnight. The code is PBANDP15.
🍂
Have the most beautiful day!

Look at this friends! It’s my first Fall vignett Look at this friends! It’s my first Fall vignette. Notice anything that seems a tad early? It’s my first pumpkin from my garden. Can you believe it? They started to grow early this season so it’s time to start picking. Unfortunately the massive one I showed you a couple weeks ago didn’t make it. It collapsed in the middle. That makes me sad, but at least I have more pumpkins growing.
🎃
I really had fun bringing out some Fall decor. Fall is not my favorite season, as I love Spring and Summer, but Fall is my favorite to decorate for.
🎃
I wanted to share with you my new reversible blocks from @krumpetshomedecor. Aren’t they cute. They would look so pretty on a shelf. The one side says Fall and the other side says Boo! The two wooden pumpkins are also from Krumpets Home Decor.
🎃
The Fall blocks are the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. Plus you get an additional 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link in my bio.

What is your favorite season to decorate for?

Hello Tuesday! One of my favorite summer drinks is Hello Tuesday! One of my favorite summer drinks is a nice cold glass of lemonade. I like it a tad sour over sweet. It gives you the zippys in your mouth. I do love a good homemade lemonade, but once in awhile I like to cheat and just get my favorite store brand and add some freshly cut lemons and a few sprigs of mint. It then looks homemade when it’s not.
🍋
This is my outdoor dining area. I put the tablecloth over the table and have kept it like that all summer. I love my table, but being black, it’s extremely hot when you touch it. Plus it has water spots from last year which is annoying. Not sure how to get rid of them? 
🍋
What is your favorite summer drink? Have a wonderful day!
