So, could call my daughter a connoisseur of macaroni and cheese. It is one of her favorite things to eat.

She loves to eat it at home, at school,  and when we eat out. She has sampled many different types of mac and cheese. In her short 12 years, this girl has definitely figured out her favorites .

Also, she loves to watch Pioneer Woman with me on Saturday mornings. When she saw her make quick shells and cheese she immediately asked me to make it for her. So as any mother would do, I made it for her.

I did need to make a change as I was making it to get it the consistency I wanted it. As a result, it is 2 thumbs up from my macaroni and cheese specialist!
