Happy Friday, the last Friday in June ~ I hate to see it go.
Before we get started with my June Recipe Wrap~Up, I want to share with you some special news. Today I’m featured over at Stacey’s Poofing the Pillow‘s home tour. I’m sharing 5 rooms from our home on Stacey’s monthly home tour. I hope you enjoy.
Now, let’s review this month’s recipes, cooking tips and techniques. I hope you love them.
