It’s been so long that I’m not even sure I know how to blog anymore. I have a couple of posts that have been sitting in my queue and I decided it’s time to publish them to get them out! We just moved into a new house as well so I’m starting back up in the kitchen again.
I’ve pulled out all of my appliances and have room to spread out now and make a mess in the kitchen. The only problem is we’re all sheltered in place and I can’t just go out willy nilly to get ingredients to cook with. My cooking and baking have to be well thought out in advance.
If you need something to do while you’re sheltering in place, check out Vurbl for some podcasts.
This is an easy recipe since it doesn’t have that many ingredients and you probably already have most of it on hand. Recipe adapted from Fav Family Recipes

Oh hey, it’s 2019 and this is my first post in the new year. I’m the worst. Sorrrrrrrrry. I figured I might as well publish the posts that I have in my queue since I have them!
