Whilst pulling out the Pyrex brownie dish and dreading the prospect of carefully balancing taco shells against each other, I saw our V-shaped roasting rack and came up with my best idea since wondering if Lucca Ravioli sold stuffed shells: … Continue reading
Today’s purchase: I am a tool. But I love it.
