Shelli Cooks: The day I lost my weave but went ahead and ate it
I didn’t have enough room in the pan for all the bacon strips so I tried the basket weave. Well did not turn out to be a basket, but it was still bacon. I thought maybe I’d use toothpicks the next time I try this, but I read somewhere that if you give your raw […]

Shelli Cooks: First time using Air Fryer – slow potatoes
My face when I’m starving but I’m only 12 pages into the 32-page air fryer operation manual. But then I find out the second half is just repeating it in Spanish: One. Hour. Later.
