Last year, Kyle and I were fortunate enough to attend the very first Collab Camp (aka: YouTube Mommy Meetup Conference) hosted by the YTMM. It was an amazing event that let us not only meet with like minded YouTubers but also encouraged us to collab and create. I've never before been to an event that let me walk away with such an astonishing amount of CONTENT that I was then able to share with our own YouTube community.


Another awesome element? The swag bags and door prizes.
Kyle and I actually walked away with an entire Charlie Banana cloth diaper starter kit and two disposable swim diapers. WOO! I thought this was the PERFECT opportunity to spread some love about the conference AND to host a giveaway. So, one... I really hope you checkout the conference site to learn more about it and maybe (and by maybe, I mean you TOTALLY SHOULD) attend. Two... enter to win one or all of the giveaways including the Charlie Banana Starter Kit and Reusable Swim Diapers. Check out the video to learn more about Collab Camp as well as to enjoy some of our adventures from last year's conference.  Use the forms below to enter the giveaway and don't forget to share with families who may also be interested. =)

So as weird as it may sound, I have always been really intimidated by pork. I don't eat it or cook it almost ever. (Except bacon. Bacon is always an exception.) However... my husband and even kids really, really like pork tenderloin. I would occasionally pick up pre-seasoned ones from a local grocery store but then one day we found an awesome deal on a two pack of pork tenderloins at Costco and BAM. I needed wanted to make this work.

So after a lot of trial and error, I figured out  a dry rub that was an evolution of bits and pieces of what other people recommended that I carved out into my very own version of what I consider one of the tastiest pork dry rubs ever. And, not to stop there, I also figured out what worked best for keeping my pork tenderloin moist, delicious, and so flavorful. YES. Never would I have thought I would be this pleased about something involving pork.

Below I am going to share with you both the dry rub (a Sweet version and a Sweet and Spicy version) as well as how I cook my pork tenderloins. The dry rub can, of course, be used for other dishes/meats and can be sealed and stored for up to 2-3 months. Be sure to watch the video to get more details on the whole process.

I hope this helps out any other person looking for a more surefire way to cook a pork dish but more importantly, I hope you enjoy it! =)
