New Format
Hello, loyal readers...
I apologize if you have been patiently waiting for new healthy recipes from me. I have not had any good new ones cross my path lately. All the good new recipes I have tried have been...not so healthy. But I decided to reorganize and label recipes to make them easier for me and you to go back and find them. And I am not just limiting myself to healthy recipes. Because I bake and cook for company sometimes and I have some "wow" recipes that are too good not to share. So I am still trying to be on the wagon, but I don't have calorie counts for all my new recipes(nor do I want to know for some of them) but I just tell myself, all things in moderation. So enjoy the new ones, make them for company, and share some more healthy ones with me! Happy Wednesday!
