Everything looks so good, Jenna. A delicious bucket list.
It all sounds good! The grilled cheese nuggets are an instant “yes” and I want to see your recipe for carrot soup! Panini Pete’s here in Fairhope had it on their menu for a while and the whole town was abuzz with praise. But every time I went by and tried to order it, they were sold out! Isn’t that the saddest carrot soup story you’ve ever heard?
I’ll watch for your version!
Ha, Thanks Leslie Anne, I will be sure to make some carrot soup just for you!
And I made your Irish Cream cake!
So many delicious options here! I can’t wait to see these throughout April 🙂
Thank you for all the nice recipes. Love the Ham and Bean Soup.

While I’ve made tons of soups, carrot isn’t one of them-sounds good! Not sure what I’ll be making but I am determined to fire up the grill at some point:@)
Love it! What a clever way to organize recipe ideas….Everything looks so delicious. I agree I have more ideas than time (sigh).

Thanks Velva, it really works for me and pushes me to try new things~
Everything looks delicious Jenna! I really need to try your Green Goddess dressing 🙂
Oops, I thought I commented but I don’t see it here. Everything looks delicious Jenna, I’m not nearly as organized. I need to whip up a batch of your Green Goddess dressing 🙂
Love the idea of a recipe bucket list. 🙂 You have some good ones on yours!
