Banana Cream Pie

Banana Cream Pie by Stalk My Kitchen

Banana Cream PieFor the longest time I had been craving a slice of banana cream pie.

Chocolate Sea Salt Ice Cream

Chocolate Sea Salt Ice Cream by Stalk My Kitchen

Chocolate Sea Salt Ice CreamI’m of the opinion, “Why buy something when you can make it?” There are so many items we eat on a semi-daily basis that can be made in our own kitchens – why are we throwing money away on stabilizers, preservatives, and any number of other icky chemicals that comprise our “food”?
