This recipe is so easy and it’s very refreshing! I had it the first time while visiting my grandma in Tennessee two years ago.
Start having a baked pie shell ready to fill. You can use the Pillsbury ones or the frozen ones that need to be baked for 10-15 minutes. Peel and quarter about 9 [...]
It was a few months ago when I found a Trader Joe’s Dark Chocolate Truffle bar in my box at school with a thank you note attached. I had helped with some training for a colleague. Little does anyone know the “thank you” actually goes to her for giving me the chocolate bar!

This is not an original recipe. I can’t even remember where I got it but I guarantee it’s the best you’ll try in it’s category! NO JOKE!

Tonight I experimented with an American staple snack…the Rice Krispie Treat. I know, you’re probably thinking what could possibly make it better? Thanks [...]
…on Mondays and Fridays!
Yummy!
