Anyways. Just a recap of a few of my favorite post memories that I stumbled upon this week. Do you remember any of these…

This pineapple bowl is not only beautiful but one of the tastiest meals I have ever made! In fact, I think this might be what I make next time we have guests over! Who wants to come over!?
