It seems I am not done with brownies yet. After developing a recipe for the fudgiest Nutella brownies, I thought that would be it. After all, they are amazing. But no. The paleo world was calling, and I found myself experimenting with a version of brownies made with red kidney beans. Yuck! You might say,…
As a child, I dreamed of becoming a professional photographer. I wanted to capture stunning vistas and cute animals and add scripture verses to the blown-up image like the posters I saw on the walls of our house.
