Is life fair?

I looked out the window this morning and saw some giant weeds in the back yard so I nipped out for half and hour to do a bit of cleanup. All this rain causes everything to grow faster.

L is in the doldrums as she has yet to see her hero Rafael Nadal closeup at the Rogers Cup where she is volunteering. Apparently the other day, she saw him doing warmups but he was in a far court, away from the crowds. Only the VIP ticket holders could get up close that day. Well wouldn't you know it, her older cousin showed up unexpectedly with her latest boyfriend in tow. And they had VIP tickets. So the cousin says to her 'Which one is Nadal?' 'Is he famous?' She gets closeup, runs up to him as he's leaving, grabs him by the shirt and gets a picture with him! Is life fair?

So I ended up making breaded pork chops for dinner yesterday.

Breaded Pork Chops

10 boneless fast fry pork loin centre chops
1/2 tsp salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup flour

Season chops with salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder. Set up your breading station with 1 bowl of the flour, 1 bowl of the milk, 1 bowl of the breadcrumbs. Dip each chop in flour, milk, breadcrumbs in that order. Heat 3 tbs olive oil in a frying pan. Add a couple of the thin chops and fry for 3 minutes each side. Top up with olive oil as required as you do the remaining chops a couple at a time.
