I realize that it's been a while since I've posted any recipes. A busy mom here during awake time and a busy working woman during nap time has got me to where I can't write about both.
However, I have been learning about the value of wholesome cooking/baking and I wanted to share this recipe that I have been working on. It's been a work in progress for ages, so I hope you enjoy it!
