I know it is particularly confusing for our little ones to witness these sweeping changes in their lives and routines. At times like this I find that I seek solace in a little bit of cooking as it helps take my mind off other concerns. So, I thought that I’d share a recipe that your kids might enjoy; Trix marshmallow treats. I know that my teenage boys love it. It’s a very easy recipe with only three ingredients. Perhaps you and your kids can make some today! Hope that you’re all staying safe. Take care.
