I love your blog and get so many great ideas , but the last few days I’ve had to just skip because the amount of ads that pop up have been making it so hard to follow . When looking at the recipe I have to scroll past 4 ads to find the ingredients . When I’m reading numerous ones are also popping up at the bottom as well.
