My task for this week, is to make STRUDEL. I have a fascination with making meals I see in movies. For example, I am sure you would love to know, that my wedding was based off the movie “Steel Magnolias”. Everything except the bleeding Armadillo grooms cake, was present.
Here is this weeks venture! Gluten Free, and still sticks with my “movie food” theme.
