Key Lime Cheesecakes with Pretzel Crust

                   Today is my Birthday.......I always get a bit nostalgic with every passing
           year. I think about how far I've come, I think about the future and what I can do to
           be the best me, I can be. I feel like I'm coming into my own....a wiser, smarter, and
                        better me. I think this all comes with age and life experience for me.
                   I feel very blessed and appreciate everything in my life...including each and
                    everyone of YOU. Thank you for taking time out our your day to visit me.

             I didn't want to bake myself a cake today so I made the great individual Key Lime
                  Pie Cheesecakes. They make me happy and giddy. So easy with no baking
                involved.That works for me. I can see these being made for Mother's Day or a
                                   ladies get together. Have fun and whip up some of these.
