We’re all familiar with the classic film, The Sound of Music and this line from the famous song, “When the dog bites, When the bee stings, When I’m feeling sad, I simply remember my favorite things, And then I don’t feel so bad…” (You might even get a chuckle from this parody of the song!)
Since we’re all in this together, we thought it would be fun to share a few of our favorite things to bring a smile to your face and help you pass the time!
Our inaugural list includes some of the BOWA Team’s favorite recipes that were included in the cookbook we put together a few years ago honor of BOWA’s 30th anniversary – A Culinary Celebration. Hope you find a few recipes to try out yourself! Bon Appétit!
