SPICED NUTS – Home Cooking Dish of the Month, December 2017">SPICED NUTS – Home Cooking Dish of the Month, December 2017

I love food. Unfortunately, I can't cook worth a damn. I've been known to even burn water.
When I watch chefs and good cooks on tv, I'm so envious of their skills. This blog is the closest I get to cooking, other than the microwave ;)
Try not to drool!
