Hubby here again and sorry if I don’t like everyone’s names to their blogs. I just have good stories, guest posts, and guest recipes that I was given to share, but I am on my own after that.
Anyways, a quick update first. For those of you following Bobbi via her Twitter, she just completed her first leg of the relay race and did it at a 7:30 pace… but alas, it was the easiest of her 3 legs.
Welp, here’s a guest recipe that Bobbi gave me to post. Enjoy!
