sOUNDS DELICIOUS. I know Carmen will want to add this to the Recipe book. She made three up and gave them for gifts for Christmas. They are wonderful. Especially the “fun facts”.
She did a great job. I think the cost for each will be about $6.00. They are really worth it. Check with Carmen. And give her some “fun Facts”‘ some things you can think about your kids that are funny. Short lines. Or not funny. just something interesting; like, “Tony took ballet lessons when he was twelve, but quit, because the guys at school made fun of him.” I had forgotten that one.
