gift to myself.

somehow i lost our crock pot. i noticed about 3 months ago...obviously i was using it alll the time.

that is going to change since i got a new one.

just found a random recipe online. mexican chicken for dinner. really hope its good.

but for real, i am going to need some crock pot recipes. any friends out there have some go-tos??

cheddar, bacon & green apple sandwich

my parents introduced us to this amazing grilled sandwich. it sounds completely strange, but the flavors come together and taste oh so good.

the recipe came from tyler florence.

ingredients:

quality sandwich bread

grainy mustard

bacon

thinly sliced granny smith apples

cheddar cheese

we used a flat griddle to toast the sandwich until golden brown.

simply divine. thanks mom & dad and tyler for the recipe!

pause.

i know you are expecting spring break details and recap...i promise they are on the way. i took way too many pictures and haven't been able to sort them, nor take the time to reflect over the trip.

side note:

this recipe for Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread looks amazing. it made me stop what i was doing and immediately share the wealth with yall. i have to try this soon.
