Hi Terri. I love your recipes but sadly, we here in New Zealand can’t get the ready made products that you have in your recipes. There’s no such thing as Pillsbury crescent rolls or caramel morsels etc.
I do enjoy a lot of the recipes where I can find a comprise.
Seasons greetings to you and those you love. I guess it’s chilly where you are while we swelter in summer heat.
Cheers and many blessings for the festive season. Anna
