My favorite appetizer…
So I haven’t posted a recipe in a zillion years, okay maybe a month, but either way I was so over myself today I didn’t feel like thinking or writing about myself. One of my friends is stopping by for appetizers and of course I made my favorite appetizer which I seem to make…
