I’m trying my best to stay away from yeast from now on. (Please don’t hold me to this sentence). I’m notorious for changing my mind often so don’t be surprised if by tomorrow you saw a new post reading, “I’m In Love With Yeast!” But as of today, I’m avoiding it now. Last night was…

Saturday Morning Cartoons and Poptarts

Quick and Easy Pico de Gallo
The tomatoes are coming! The tomatoes are coming! No seriously, they are here in mass volume–I cannot keep up. I went out to pick a few of them for some guacamole and….Holy cannoli! They are everywhere! What started out as a few ended up as almost an entire bucket full. So it’s time to get…
