Crock Pot Lasagna
Crock Pot Lasagna just might become your "go to" recipe!I am a HUGE lasagna fan. It was one of the first suppers I "cooked" as a kid, although I didn't actually do anything.

Since lasagna takes so long to cook, my job was getting it in the oven when I got home from school so it would be ready in time for ... Continue Reading

A letter to you
Today, as I plucked our mail out of the mailbox, I began thinking of how rapidly life has changed. Most days I walk inside with a collection of catalogs and junk mail. I walk straight to the trash and stand over it as I go through them one by one. It is seldom that there is anything left in my hands when I turn around. From time to time, Mama will send me a letter. Every now and then I get a card ... Continue Reading
