Drop of Disney

It’s National Pretzel Day! One of my favorite Disney park snacks are the big, soft, Mickey pretzels and today I’m excited to share this delicious homemade version! These soft, salty Mickey pretzels are perfect on their own or with some homemade cheese dip!

Pretzels are something I hadn’t really thought about making at home.…

Happy Mardi Gras! Today we’re celebrating with this delicious cinnamon king cake! This yeasted cake is filled with cinnamon sugar and topped with a sweet icing and colorful sugar.

I just love sitting down to a nice cup of tea and some warm scones.…
