Sizzle and bake! Must be the weekend!

We are currently attempting a @dishoom.bsky.social recipe … it’s been a joy already, and we’re nowhere near dinner time! #foodlove #cooking #herbs #spices

My husband brought home a bouquet of mozzarella sticks resting in a baby vase of marinara. If this isn’t true love, I don’t know what is.
