Loaded Twice Baked Potatoes
Updated: Jul 31, 2019
I had a sorority event this past weekend that required me to cook a dish. Well... let me tell you, I HATE COOKING! So naturally I asked my sister for help! And after a little bit of begging and a whole lot of pleading, not only did she make some amazing twice baked potatoes, but she also made me a shirt that insinuated I did all the work! I think she may be competing for the best sister ever award. LOL
***BTW, you can purchase my shirt or one like it on the boutique page of this website!
