Happy Cinco de Mayo!!
Yes, this newsletter was supposed to be sent out before today, but that obviously didn’t happen. Yet you still have time to put a few of these recipes together if you’re still looking to add a bit of Mexican cuisine to today’s menu. I traveled to Ohio to work with Mary from Barefeet In the Kitchen the week before last and was able to make and shoot 10 recipes including FOUR new Dream Bars, three of which I fell TOTALLY in love with!! The fourth is yummy, too, but it’s not a flavor I prefer, However, it might become one of your favorites. 😉 So be on the watch for them in the next few months. I’ll be sharing one this coming Wednesday that will be perfect for Mother’s Day.
I hope you have a great week and will be back Saturday morning with some easy and yummy treats so you can spoil mom. Have a great week!
Hugs, Lynne

Tip of the Week:
Believe it or not, dental floss (unflavored, of course!) is a great tool for cutting food. It makes precise, neat cuts so it’s perfect for desserts, cheese, and more. And it makes for super easy clean up. Instead of washing a knife, just throw the dental floss away!
