October Meal

I made my October meal on October 30. I squeaked it in. We did have a guest for dinner that night. Alexsei's best friend Rachel Schollaert happened to be at the house on that night so she stayed for dinner night. Dakota was not home.

I went with a total autumn theme. I had roasted pork with a sauce made with wine and apple cider. I served it with creamy polenta and roasted vegetables with apples. I made carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and onion.

The loin was very tender. The vegetables were delicious. I could have doubled the amount I made. The potatoes and carrots were especially popular.

Glen liked everything. The creamy polenta was not his favorite, but he ate it anyway.

Me: I liked all of it including the polenta.

Alexsei: She thought the pork was fine. She was not a fan of the sauce. It was sweet. She also likes polenta the way I usually make it. She ate some, but did not love it. She did love the vegetables.

Rachel: Rachel passed on the pork. She loved the vegetables and ate some polenta.

Savana: Savana also passed on the pork. She loved the vegetables and wanted more potatoes. She also was lukewarm on the polenta.

Alaric: I believe he ate the pork.
