Wow it’s been a year since I started blogging. I can’t believe it that a year has gone by so quickly. I am happy that I have successfully completed a whole year of blogging, this is all due to the support and encouragement I have received from family, friends and you my dear readers. It’s been an exciting year for me and am hoping to continue with the same spirit as before. I have big plans for the coming year and hope to expand into more categories and hope to get the continued support from everyone.

With that let’s get into today’s recipe, you can call it an anniversary special! This is a recipe from Martha Stewart’s book. I hope you’ll enjoy this !!!
