Stuffed Pork Shoulder

Sunday Blessings Lovelies

Even though there was snow on the mountains this morning.. 

and it was a bit chilly

It was still a lovely walk home from church.

We spent the afternoon relaxing by the fire and listening to the radio...

including the Jack Benny Show...which was a little different this week as it was produced without Jack Benny himself to honour the death of the beautiful actress Carole Lombard 

Dinner tonight was Stuffed Pork Shoulder from the Better Homes and Gardens Magazine January 1941.I must be honest..it was a very small, cheap cut of pork.. and I halved the recipe...but the stuffing was moist and flavourful and elevated the taste. Served with mashed potatoes , carrots and brocolli.. there was plenty of meat and gravy left for tomorrows dinner.
