Pork Chops - "Waitress" Style

One of my favorite movies is "Waitress."

One of the unique aspects of the movie is that the lead character creates pies and then gives them fun names - like "Naughty Pumpkin" Pie or "I Hate My Life" Pie (made up of cherries and blueberries mashed together). It is really cute and endears the character quickly to the viewer.

Given my love of pork chops and the astounding number of really interesting and delicious pork chop recipes out there in the world, I am feeling the need to post a pork chop recipe once again, only this time I am going to creatively name the recipe, much like the character in the above mentioned movie. If it's a hit, I may have to make this a regular event here at "Happy In The Moment." What do you think?

So, here is your pork chop recipe for today, "Waitress" style.
