My daughter was turning seven, and I told her she could invite a few friends over from school to help and celebrate her special day.
Along with cake, ice cream, and presents, we had to have a meal to eat. I would normally get pizza, but Gracie had requested something that mom could make at home. She didn’t want anyone to have to leave her party to go pick up the takeout.
Since it was her birthday, it was her choice. I asked about mac and cheese…her obvious favorite.
She said, “Sure Mom! But make it fancy!” Okay then…to the internet I went to see what I could do to fancy up her macaroni and cheese. That’s when I found this recipe on Melissa’s Southern Style Kitchen.
It was easy to make and Gracie and her friends all loved it. “This is the best birthday ever!” That’s what every mom and dad always want to hear…and we got it that day.
