Exceptionally tasting beef tenderloin! Very simple and so good. Not too sweet even with all that brown sugar, just right. I left the water out all together from the marinade and just kept turning the beef more often. The reserved marinade I boiled for a minute and served on vegetables.

Ok I guess its about time to fill this out.:)
Im 26 yrs old,been married to the greatest guy ever for 5 yrs now,and we have a 3 yr old little girl.
I was born with a medical condition called TAR syndrome. All it means is that I only have 1 bone in each lower arm.(the long bone) Which makes them shorter than average. I could get it fixed but I really dont see the point. Ive lived 26 yrs with them being this way. I really dont know if I could function with longer arms. :) If you have any questions..just ask.
I love this site. Ive been telling everyone about it. Ive really been cooking more because of finding zaar.
I love to read almost anything,scrapbook,making mosaics(just getting started) and photography. I really havent had a whole lot of time for any of these things but Im going to make a effort to slow down and start doing my stuff again. Im also am getting into 4 wheeling with my family.
