That's what YER MOM said in the kitchen, last night...
Cooking stuff, some DIY stuff, rantings, ravings, sports. I'm a single Mom of an amazing college student who still lives at home with her Mama, because she can. We both love to cook, read, watch sports and enjoy the finer things in life as cheap as possible.

Gnocchi "mac & cheese" with kale.
I didn't have any fancy cheese, so I just used what was in the fridge. Turned out so yummy. Can't wait to tweak the recipe to my liking.
