As you all know I have a list of many things that I love to do. It goes without saying that paper crafting is very high on my list but did you know that cooking follows not too far behind that? Now that the colder days and nights are approaching I will be in the kitchen more and cooking up a storm. Although I do not like the cold weather I will be at home more. That means I will be crafting, stamping, cooking, and walking more. Life is good. :)
Okay enough about me. Paper Crafts was kind enough to send me a recipe and a project to share with you from their release of PC GourmetA sequel to their 2006 special issue. This issue of PC Gourmet has 176 pages and features over 50 original recipes with 110 projects. If you would like to order one of these awesome books for yourself or for the crafter/cook in your life then just click here. I am seriously thinking about giving each of our daughters a copy for Christmas. Oh and of course I will be buying one for myself. Ha-ha.
Have Fun And Enjoy!

This recipe looks yummy, Mary. I can't imagine you cooking (mixing, stirring, forming, and placing a baking sheet into a hot oven) with a fractured elbow and sprained hand, but you are so amazing, I won't put anything past you.
Thanks for sharing this recipe and happy belated anniversary.
