I love your recipes BUT... All of the other unrelated ads blinking and changing while trying to navigate to your recipes are SOOOO irritating!!! Please can you scale back on these??? PLEASE!!!

Hi Sammy, I'm sorry the ads are frustrating to you however it the way we're able to offer our recipes to readers for free. It's very expensive to run a website, purchase equipment and test recipes multiple times. We also have a number of employees who work for us. The ads help pay the bills. I know what you mean as I don't like watching the ads on television but I know that it's the way I am able to watch quality shows for free. It's the same with websites.
