Welcome to what is, apparently, a retro food - the criss-cross potato! This past Mother’s Day weekend, the hubby made us a wonderfully fantastic and simple meal of steak and potatoes. He asked if we should make criss-cross potatoes, something he and I haven’t had since the earlier years of our marriage. I remember them […]

To friends, too! High praise, indeed. […]
