Hello Friends! Today we’re getting a little nostalgic and throwing it back to the days when we were kids. We’re sharing clever spins on our favorite childhood recipes, a massive grilled cheese sandwich you need to see for yourself, and a clever ice cream hack that the kids will love. Plus, we have a few matzo upgrades for folks celebrating Passover this weekend and, of course, some must-try wine finds (but maybe leave that to the adults). Find it all below!
Cheers! Tanji |
