I cook a lot of things, so most people are surprised to hear that my favorite meal is a simple medium rare rib eye and a baked potato with my homemade horseradish cream steak sauce. #imakeuglypancakes Recipe video: youtu.be/RHsofjc9iPQ?...

We’re close enough to spring, so I moved my plants back to my bedroom window (too cold during the winter). Some of my snake plants are pretty grumpy and want to stretch their legs, so I’ll split and repot them in a few weeks. πŸͺ΄ #twogreenthumbs #plantmom

Even tho my cooking channel on YouTube has β€œpancakes” in the name, I’m not a big breakfast food person.
