Are you having a problem with your blog? I havenโt received an email since the weekend update that talked about Josephโs birthday. ย Just wondering. I miss it.
Hi Sandy, Yes, unfortunately. My apologies for the inconvenience; Iโm having a technical issue with the email service that I use. Iโm working on getting it fixed ASAP!
Thanks for the link love!!! Have a great weekend!
Youโre welcome!!
Hello from a fellow Yinzer living in Dallas. I have been following you for some time and enjoy your blog. I brought 10 lbs. of โauthenticโ kielbasa home from my last trip to the Burgh, and loved your slow cooker recipe for it. You might like to try kielbasa in Choucroute Garnieโฆ a life changing Alsatian pork and sauerkraut casserole.
Will you do a post on your pantry organization? ย Iโve got some REALLY deep pantry space and some not so deep pantry space, and both need some serious organizing. ย
Love your classic game day Sunday menu. ย Enjoy the game! ย Here We Go, STEELERS!!
Hi Michelle, Yes, Iโm planning on it! As soon as I get it finished up! :)
Go Steelers! Chicken Parm pregame at our house!
Thank you so much for the link love!
Youโre welcome!
I love a good, gooey chocolate chip cookie. Iโm glad you posted the link to Julieโs blog with the recipe. Iโd make them tonight but since Monday is National Pie Day (not Pi Day-thatโs later in the year) I am going to be making pies for the office. So, I will make them later and chime in on the results. I have made Browned Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies and the staff snarffed them all up with comments like: โNEVER bring these to work again!!!โ While they walk away with a cookie in each hand. Iโll let you know how they turn out.ย
