Pudding
I made vanilla pudding last night. Real cooked pudding with whole milk and egg yolks. I haven't tried it yet (aside from licking the spoon) because it's been chilling in the fridge all night. However, it is #1 on my to-do list for when I get home after work ( Read more... ) -

Three Things
I will admit it... I've slipped into a bit of lazy rut lately. With the frigid temperatures outside, it's so easy to snuggle under a blanket and focus on the television. It's warm and cozy, but not productive, and I can see it becoming a problem the longer I let it go on ( Read more... ) -
