The Foodies #sickpitches
Camille Lutece, a culinary school grad, can’t land a job and becomes private chef to a lottery-winning, catfish-handfishing ozark mountain family.

Quadruple Spice Brown Butter Oatmeal Crackie
by request of @yoginicuisine
The perfect crackie will be caramelized and crunchy on the bottom and sides, but soft in the middle and slightly craggy on top.
