  13. OMG, I actually make this!!! Although I’ve done it all in a giant pan, and no melted cheese. You’ve just taught me how to seriously up my game. And this is a perfect post-Easter meal when you have lots of leftover ham.

    • Wow it is hot there! It was 52 degrees while I worked outside today. I didn’t need a coat but tired of the cold. Up in the 70’s in a few days. I need to open my small ponds with goldfish but the water is still too cold. It is the last thing I need to do for spring yard start up. I will be completely redoing my small fish ponds landscaping this year. I bought everything to do it last year but health problems stopped that. Now I’m ready!
