Hello. I am a frequent reader of your blog, but this is my first time commenting. This looks like a great recipe. My family loves rice pudding, so I can hardly wait to make this for them.
ReplyDeleteI recently used your dog biscuit recipe to make treats for my pets. They really liked them. I was wondering if you would mind if I mentioned on my blog that I got the recipe from you. I won't post the actual recipe, I would just tell a funny story about how much my dogs liked them. Please let me know if that is okay with you. Thanks. I look forward to hearing from you.
My all time fav is rice pudding! That's wonderful to know you can do a Gift in a Jar with it too....with a few extra jars for myself for a quick snack!
