My husband made me the most delicious dinner last night - for no reason! He said it was just because he loves me ... (pause - insert oohhs and aaahhhs here). We used to watch the Iron Chef alot and if you are familiar with the show the chefs would be assigned a food item and then would cook a meal around it. Jason decided to take up the challenge and since we have alot of pears at the moment - he picked pears.
With no recipe at all he whipped up a pork tenderloin with glaze, atop a potato, pear and onion pancake with red peppers and pear. It was so delicious!!

On the Iron Chef they have a time limit of an hour. That was the only part of the challenge he didn't succeed in - granted he didn't have a team of sous chefs to help him either. We ate at
9:00 p.m. to candlelight with the boys in bed, complete with "bubbly". What a special treat for me before I start my busy schedule tonight with music students.
For dessert he made poached pears with icecream and chocolate sauce. I know - right!! We'll see what this surprise dinner does to my weightloss. Extra exercise needed today.
My hubby really is the best! Now to clean up from last night. I think he dirtied every pan and dish in the house!!
THat is very impressive!
