I like how apparently an appetizer made with liver & onions is the absolute worst food thing I could think of, ha!


​





Dear Ma,

I still hate liver & onions. But I wish I had a bucket of those deep fried sugar donuts you made back in the day. Yummmmmmmmmm.

Love, 
Angie



Your daughter.

The middle one. 

A - N - G - I - E.

You know, the middle child, in between the two oldest and the two youngest.

What do you mean remind you who I am again???????
I was the kid with the basketball sized head and the insufferable
know-it-all attitude! 



Oh let's face it, not much has changed.

Anyway, XOXO.
​
P.S. Can you make me up a batch of those sugar donuts sometime soon,  please :)




​
​O
kay, let's move on to what these "fillo" shells are...
Picture
These are
fully baked
​phyllo dough cups.


You will either find these in the freezer section or the bread aisle.

Yeah, I know.

​Weird.​
​




Now remember, they are fully baked!
​They look like this when you open the box.

​Disclaimer: I am completely serious, don't say I didn't warn you!
These suckers are absolutely addicting! 
I mean addicting!!
I'm not going to tell you how many I ate seven but I will say I had to throw these in the freezer nine wrapped up real good for Christmas Day brunch fine ten because I would have ate twelve every single ding dang one. Shut up.

*************************************************************************
Quick note: I put these in the freezer wrapped up really really well.
I took a couple out the next day and let them come to room temp.
They were every bit JUST AS DELICIOUS BUT the phyllo cup flaked a bit so be careful when removing them from the tray/plate/bag in the freezer.

Okay, so remember the letter up above to my Ma?
Well, we both have January birthdays.

c1977? I was maybe 13 here, Ma was 33. We were at my Grandma Norris' house.
[clearing throat] Uh, I'm on the right there, Ma is on the left...just for clarification purposes.
