Thanks for sharing the recipe . I will have to give it a try ! YUMMY ! Yup rainy and gloomy here to but the clouds seem to be going and I can see the sun trying to pop out hope it does for the evening ! Have a good day !
ReplyDeleteThe sun is out now...YAY!!!
DeleteRainy, dull and dreary here too. The house is a mess, boxes and books everywhere ready to have new carpets laid on Wednesday. Right now I'm tired of the whole process and wish it was over. Thankfully after tomorrow I can start to put it all back together. It will be what I call a 450 dinner ... chicken strips and fries as there is limited space to prepare anything in the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteI told you Linda....getting new carpeting is like hell on earth!!!
DeleteI hope you LOVE the end results...
Sun is shining here...
At this point I can't remember what the new one looks like, I'll just be glad when it is over. It is worse than moving. At least with moving the boxes go out to the truck, now they just keep piling up.
DeleteEnough grumbing, I just have to get on with it.
Relax....deep breath...it will all be over soon!!!
DeleteDo you have a gluten free version??? Looks so yummy I may have been tempted to make it but only if it is gluten free. Maybe you could work on that? lol
ReplyDeleteFunny you should ask!!! hahaha...
DeleteAfter I made this...I thought...how about just thickening with the cornstarch, no crust....and serve like a pudding!!!
What do you think of that!!!
That sounds yummy!!
DeleteThat looks so yummy! But if I make it I will eat it and *sigh* that will be my Weight Watchers points for the day.
ReplyDeleteI can see how that would be a big problem...
DeleteHave you lost any weight while you have been recuperating???
I can't believe I made banana cake today. I'll just have to get more!
ReplyDeleteYes you will...it is worth the effort, believe me!!!
DeleteOh my gosh, that looks amazing! Thank you for the recipe. That photo of the hens and chicks is so pretty; that's one of my favorite color combinations.
ReplyDeleteOh my word, that looks amazingly delicious!!!!
ReplyDeleteNow I want dessert!!!
Bah!!
