The holidays have been keeping me busy


These past few weeks have been hectic! Friends and family have been arriving from all over and man have I been distracted! I am so blessed to have such a supporting, loving and crazy family! Although I haven't posted for a bit, I have been busy with new crafts and recipes. A few weekends ago, my love and I hosted an ugly sweater party which consisted of making treats and drinks! For some of the gifts I gave this year, I made homemade infused lavender neck wraps and a headband. I am still working on the last scarf I posted (the scarf is for me and since I was making gifts I delayed the project). I promise I will post the recipes and pictures from the party as well as the neck wrap project. I can't wait to share with you all the things I've been up to!

Next, you can add any spices you would like but I used cinnamon and topped it with whipped cream. Here it is!

I used the paste, the ratio to this was 1 tsp to 8 oz. boiling water. I used  1.5   tsp to 10.5 oz water. Then I added the broth into the crock pot followed by the pork. Let this cook for 5.5 hours and then shred the meat.  Once I shredded the meat, I took out some of the broth mix and put the meat back into the pot and added BBQ sauce. I put this on simmer for 20 minutes While this is cooking, I combined the coleslaw and dressing mix. I poured the cabbage a little at a time with the sauce over. Bon ap...
