Dear Sue;
It's times like this I wish we were all closer geographically. Grins. It sounds
like a yummy recipe, maybe someday I can talk someone here into trying it out.
With it being just Doug and I who eat, and me being overweight, baking
something like that would be a definite no-no. Sampling on the other hand… wink.
Have a very happy new year!
Valerie
Please pray for and follow Nichole's recovery:
