In The English Kitchen today  . . . . Garlic Butter Parmesan Butter Smashed Potatoes . . .  delicious, with loads of crispy bits. The small batch.

I hope you have a wonderful day. I think we are having a snowy one here in Eastern Canada.  A weather warning is in effect. We may not get what they are saying, but then again, we might!  Whatever you get up to, stay warm, be safe and don't forget!
