it's me, ali, taking over the blog again!
so, i love to bake. more specifically, i like to bake and then force my friends to eat the baked items (which is never difficult to get them to do). this is my specialty/frequently demanded/favorite/go-to recipe...i'm not going to lie, it's a little tough to release it to the world!
