Ruby and I ducked into a market on the way to the airport and I bought some broken, cheaper/ rice! I'm always looking for a way to cut pennies..which I then spent on "Oh Henry!" bars! I mean, when was the last time you saw "Oh Henry!" bars? They'll be favors for my 4 year old grandson, Henry, who's visiting from the UK. He'll be impressed! So will you...with September's recipes!
