CAN'T GET ENOUGH

WASHINGTON D.C. TRIP   As most of you know I recently traveled to the D.C lands. It was a very random, but some what planned trip. I went alone and LOVED every minute.

I made sure I had all the major locations I would be visiting's address to ensure I wouldn't venture off to far. I also looked into the HOTT spots.

I just wanted to ensure you were in the know that I don't bake, therefore I always have to find recipes. I think it's about the mixing and how much to add (when cooking you don't have to be precise and you can taste as you go).
