Cooking is my hobby and I love it. It relieves my stress. I use recipes as a base line...I find a few and compare. Then I make my own personal concoction from what I've learned. This blog has become my personal cooking journal. It helps me remember what I've made/liked and didn't. But mostly, this is for my son. I hope he makes some of these dishes one day...One of the nicest things he's said to me is that he's never had a bad meal with me, at home or at a restaurant (research wins!).

Ah, my millennial, which made me roll my own eyes.. 🙄 The recipe calls for white bread but we didn't have any so used what we had today which was:
