apricot-granola-bars

Crunchy apricot muesli bars were one of my favourite lunch box additions when I was a kid. I used to pick the little round apricots balls off the top and eat those first. I always regretted it, after that I was left with a plain old oat bar. I never learnt my lesson, I enjoyed… READ MORE
