Can you see the surprise….its there in the crust. Let me tell you, it was scrumptious.


15Lets not forget the delicious salad my Aunt Ellen made….tasty orange flavored virgin oil and lemon vinegar with baked beets too. Very different and very tasty.


Traveling across the country to visit family is awesome, and the food that comes with this visit is even better. Thanks Auntie Ellen and Uncle Steve for making me feel at home and for feeding me all these wonderful foods. I’ll be back in a hurry.
