I had no idea that when I created this blog earlier in the week and named it Crista's Fresh Start, that it was so prophetic.
On Tuesday, my job of over five years came to an end. Of course the immediate response was shock and awe. My company was a wonderful company to work for and it was a crushing experience to be told I no longer had a position. Many of my co-workers and the sales reps I supported and reached out and told me what a great asset I was and that I will be missed, and this makes me feel much better.
Alas, hind sight is 20/20. While I loved my job, it was very much dead-end. I had often thought about trying something new or even going back to school. This forces me to step out of my comfort zone and do just that.
In the mean time, I will take at least a few days to enjoy the "real house-wives of Indianapolis" lifestyle. Yeah, I know I'm not a wife, or a housewife, but neither was Bethany Frankel and look where she is now!
So as I enjoyed my first day of as a lady-of-leisure, I whipped out the crock pot and made some delicious dinner. Without further ado, I give you...
Delicious Pulled Pork
5 lb. Pork Shoulder
1 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup of water
Mix spices together and rub over the pork roast. Place roast in a 5-6 qt. crock pot and add the cup of water. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-5.
Blake likes his with slaw and bbq sauce on top! I like it just as it is. There is no wrong way to eat this delicious meat!
