pork chops with peach onion marmellata

i ended up catching the cold from hell.. *cough cough* *sneeze sneeze* don't worry I washed and sanitized my hands.. dinners where not over the top this week but simple things i could make in between "napping" on the couch.. there are no pictures i was to exhausted after dinner to take any.. and my dishwasher died on top of all my things happening this weekend so what is normally a kaotic kitchen is down right out of control right now.. but no worries i am feeling better and dishwasher should be fixed soon so we should be back to normal next week.
