I’ve wanted to make a bucket list for a while… you know what a bucket list is, right? A list of things that you totally want to do sometime before you die? I don’t have a personal bucket list for myself because I just take life as it comes and enjoy every opportunity that it gives me. But for recipes- I need a list! There are zillions of recipes out there, I want to try anything and (most) everything), so here’s my bucket list of recipes I want to make sometime in the next 50 or so years! I’ll be sharing them on my site as I make them and crossing them off the ‘ol list as they are tried and true. And oh… if you have any “bucket list” recipes that you’d like me to make- please share in the comments. And if you happen to have a wonderful family favorite recipe for anything that is mentioned below, please email it to me at foodie {at} recipegirl {dot} com and I’ll do my best to make your recipe and share it here on RecipeGirl!
