In the Kitchen

Don’t ask why, but our thoughts went to “breakfast” this month. You would think March would get us thinking smoothies, salads, fruits, etc. But, no. We’re still looking for “comfort.” Some of these breakfast treats can be made at the table or by your younger family members. How ‘bout recruiting them and these recipes for Mother’s Day or Father’s Day. Now that’s thinking ahead!!! Enjoy and have fun. P.S. The Hot Honey Butter is perfect for the Corn Muffins.
