1. So I did my taxes last Saturday, and my refund is already pending in my bank account. Go IRS!
2. Oreo Cakesters. They’re Oreos. They’re cake. It’s perfect.
3. I am not a fan of box graters. I use them, usually for cheese, but I think they are uncomfortable to hold and I often cut myself on one of the sides I’m not currently using. I’m not the only one, right? So I found this guy, and for tonight’s ham and potato casserole with cheese sauce, I used it to grate the cheese. It worked really well for the harder cheddar. I did struggle a little with the softer Monterrey jack (same as a box grater). I tried putting the cheese in the freezer first and it helped some (next time I’ll freeze it sooner). But using this smaller grater, with only the one side for me to potentially cut myself, was so much better. I really enjoyed working with Barry. For me, it’s a better alternative to the box grater. And it’s a bear!
