I'm going to be PUBLISHED!


I am sooooo EXCITED!

I submitted a story along with my recipe and received a letter stating they want to publish it in an upcoming GOOSEBERRY COOKBOOK!

My recipe is a family secret! and ONLY SPECIAL people get this recipe..so I was elated to know how SPECIAL it will be now for a lot of other people!

The recipe is a "comfort food" in our home and my children's...as it brings back memories of a special time in our lives. One especially touched by GOD and his GOOD WORK in our lives. Yes...a recipe can do that!

Ever have a smell in the air...of the woods, or perfume ..that BRING you right back to a place or event. This recipe does that for us...and I hope it will for those who use it from the cookbook.

It might become a tradition as it has for us...

Everyone who has tasted this recipe..love it!

Surprising to me..for one of the ingredients...

I thought surely my meat and potato son in law..would not like this for the ONE ingredient.

It is HIS FAVORITE meal ... and one of my grandsons requested it for his b'day dinner!!

I'll let you know more as I find out myself.

I so hope they include my "story" with it...

if not..YOU WILL find it HERE!!

Visit the Gooseberry website and have fun..there is also a CIRCLE OF FRIENDS with great recipes and even videos!

FUN..

Happy Homemaking...cooking and crafting...FROM THE HEART!

HOPE

Ziggy...Creative Photography


I introduced ZIGGY a few post ago...He is GROWING...and GROWING and GROWING!

This is his recent "portrait" sitting.

A MAINE COON...no telling how large this guy is going to be! He LOVES to eat! But isn't he just gorgeous...and his fur is as soft as silk.

I use to think CATS were GIRLS and DOGS were BOYS due to the fact that Cats were always primping and had soft fur. Sorry ZIGGY!!

I have to remember to call him my fur BOY!



...and because he likes to EAT....this little PIG was a perfect toy for him...and some BOYS still need a little comfort from time to time.

ENJOY!!

HOPE
