The only time I see the big stuff is on TV. We cook a lot with garlic and buy it by the 5 pound bag already peeled. Not having any big bulbs for the grill I thought…
Hotlink Cornbread Skillet It’s football season! Patti and friends love the game; Ken and friends love the snacks. We all root for Dallas.

It was delicious and long gone…
