@nestfeathers88 4 жыл бұрын

Alllll about the edges! The corners are even better ❤ I like thin slices of tomatoes because I feel like you can stack them all around your bun and then you don't have a dreaded tomato-less bite. With thick slices, you can overlap as many of them without it getting too tall. 🍅

Your kids are so lucky to have a mom who cooks such fantastic food for them all of the time! They'll look back fondly on this one day (they'll totally miss it when they're off to college for sure). Then I'm sure your cooking skills will rub off on them and they'll be great cooks too! (So many people my age and younger don't seem to know how to cook very well, seems to be a lost art...) I only hope I can somewhat measure up to you this way in the future!

I burned a pot roast last Sunday. I haven’t done that in years. Fortunately after 42 years of marriage, I confessed to my husband, cut off the burned part (the rest was delicious), and my husband and I had something to laugh at for the rest of the evening. I should have known the rest of the week was going to be a downer. Oh well, there’s next week. ❤️❤️

Now I'm in the mood to cook! I love your videos for that honestly gives me a little push to cook more, or different things. Also team tomato in general, the hubby hates tomatoes, so I end up having to eat whatever tomatoes we slice up in it's entirety. Also team brownie in general, prefer the crunchy chewy edges but woth some icecream any brownies will do...esoecially at 28 weeks preggers:)
