‘Because I Really Miss Summer’ Tropical Breakfast Parfait

July 22, 2015

It’s about this time of year that I’m pretty much over the cold. Yep, I want to run away. Somewhere HOT! really hot! stinking hot! But since that’s not really possible I decided to buy a pineapple instead (much cheaper lol)
So if you’re after a little winter escape that you don’t have to pack for, just pop on the heater & whip up one of these babies. You’ll feel like you’re sitting under a palm tree in no time… well, sort of.
