My favorite recipe is one for Dump Cake! I can mix and match based on what ingredients I have in the cupboard. Recently tried an equally easy Dump Dinner which is also easy and versatile.
Janel, For me there are two foods that I've tries and NEVER AGAIN will try.. First was eel. My parents were immigrants from Holland. My Dad loved eel. When he spotted it at an import store he had to have that delicacy. My brother and I both carefully spit it out! The other is jellyfish. Our daughters and I attended a conference in Italy, representing the US. At the large group dinner, one of the dishes had mixed sea foods, including jellyfish. It was like putting cut glass pieces in your mouth. One bite and we were each done.
I collect teddy bears. The first NEW toy I received from my parents as a child was a teddy bear. My most precious one has a ceramic necklace that says tied to my heart by adoption and love. I received that as a gift when our first child, our son Joshua, was placed in my arms.
I grew up in one of the old brick homes built in Chicago after the Chicago fire. Yet, for love of an older time in life, I enjoy visiting Amish country! Thank you for the opportunity. servedogmom@yahoo.com
One of the best "events" I've ever been to was Harambe Nights at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Our dear friends from Canada, my youngest daughter and I attended one of the special programs in celebration of the 20th anniversary of The Lion King. It was a truly amazing performance.
My favorite fairytale is Beauty and The Beast because it demonstrates that one may fall in love based of how someone truly is on the inside,and not caring how they look physically. This fairy tale has depth, and relates the stark truth about true beauty.
I read the hard copy of BILLIONAIRE BLEND and thoroughly enjoyed it (and the series). To date, every recipe I've tried has been successful and delicious as well. It is thoughtful of you to keep your readers informed with your "Coffeehouse newsletter". Now I'm craving a peach muffin. Maybe breakfast tomorrow!
