    Pretzel-Crusted Beer Cheese Macaroni and Cheese

    October may have been months ago, but I figure time stands still for good food, right? While this Pretzel-Crusted Beer Cheese Macaroni and Cheese sounds like a total Octoberfest dish (did this even happen last year *sigh), it's absolutely appropriate any time of the year! I've been known to make Hot Beer Cheese Dip in the middle of August, in the hot, humid south because...well cheese + beer + dip, it's kind of self-explanatory!

After one slice, I'm sure you'll agree! #fergasabread #manitobabread #cheesebread #buttermilkbread #greenonioncheddarbread #onioncheesebread

    Fergasa Bread (Green Onion Cheddar Buttermilk Bread)

    Fergasa Bread is probably my ultimate favourite bread on the entire planet. I don't know if it is the cheddar and green onion combination. Or if it's the soft white bread, the butter-soaked crust, or the mixture of it all. What I do know is that when I would come across a loaf, I'd snatch it up like it was my long lost child. Then, I'd give everyone side-eye as I made my way to the checkout. As if every person I came in contact with might try and pry it from my grip. I know totally obsessive.

They disappear like hotcakes. It's a must! I decided with the world shut down and our family cooped up in our cozy home, it was time to recreate these biscuits.

    Rice Krispie Cheddar Crackers

    The first time I stayed at my husband's apartment I reorganized all of his cupboards, no lie. I'm a little embarrassed to tell you this. Who does that? In my defence, nothing had a home. I don't know how anyone lives in that kind of chaos. Now, I don't mean a couple of things were out of place. I'm talking four plates in one cupboard, while two were in another. Five glasses next to the cereal, while the bowls were down with the pots. Needless to say, I reorganized EVERYTHING! As silly as it sounds there was one storage container that found…
