Pink Confetti

I made macaroni and cheese for dinner, again.  This time I took my Aunt's advice and tried Velveeta. Did anyone else eat this as a child?  I have lots of childhood memories around Velveeta.  That is until my mom decided that any cheese that didn't need to be refrigerated was probably really unhealthy.  Up until then it was used in grilled cheese and macaroni and cheese.  Mom let us keep the cool cardboard boxes it came in.  There were used for storing small stuff and other craft project.

Instead I stood in front of the Panty Cupboard and said no, no, no and maybe.  Finally I decided on Chicken Nuggets.  Thank you Betty Crocker GF Bisquick!  They turned out super yummy and made me wish I still had sal...
