I've said it before, and I'll say it again... dry cake mix can be so much fun to play around with!
It's been a really busy few weeks, and the next several to come aren't looking to be any less daunting. Fun. But, exhaustive. I think that must be how we all feel about the summer though, right?...
Read MoreChia seeds are rather fascinating to me. I've often seen them tossed into rather healthy and often the most simple of recipes. They are really fun to play around with.
Don't be scared of them if you've never tried them! My mom is a little leery since the only other time she heard of them was back when 'Chia Pets' were popular. I suppose she's scared she'll start to sprout foliage. Anyway, I can't wait for her to try this jam!...
