Most Popularย Product Shares This Week:
1.ย GoMacro Bars โ Iโve been loving these over the last couple of months, mostly to keep in my purse in case I need a quick breakfast or afternoon snack while Iโm on the go. They are filling and the ingredients are pretty clean; my favorite flavor is the oatmeal chocolate chip.
2.ย Key Lime Juiceย - This bottled key lime juice is perfect for homemadeย key lime pieย when you can't get your hands on fresh key limes.
3.ย Large Square Glass Jarย - This is the jar I love using for batches ofย refrigerator bread and butter pickles. Perfect for stashing them in the fridge!
4.ย Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauceย - An ingredient that packs tons of flavor into the reader-favoriteย copycat Chipotle chicken recipe.
5.ย The Wedding People โ I finished this book this past week; I really liked the over-arching message of the book, but it didnโt totally suck me in; Iโd give it four stars.
6. Ancho Chile Powderย - Another ingredient that packs tons of flavor into the reader-favoriteย copycat Chipotle chicken recipe.
7. Angel Food Cake Panย - I have had this pan for nearly 10 years and love it; a must-have for makingย homemade angel food cake!

What I Bookmarked This Week
I made the street-cart chicken and rice from Smitten Kitchen Every Day earlier this week, and all of us loved it. The kids even ate the salad!
I usually make sweet scones, but how good do these cheese scones look?! (They remind me a bit of my breakfast scones from 18 years ago!)
Putting this shrimp scampi on the menu soon!
Love how easy this coffee mousse is to make; I need to keep a batch in the fridge for when I want something sweet at night.
Itโs been at least a couple of years since Iโve bought Biscoff, but gosh, I need to make these Biscoff-stuffed cookies!
Have a delicious weekend!
