Nana's apron

Hello everyone,

Today is September 15th and if I was back in my home state of TN I would no doubt be taking the beautiful colors of fall for granted instead of missing them while I am here in the desert. It is strange how we are that way. We miss the little things of our past and hope for things we have not yet experienced.

In the spring of 1994 I decided that someday I was going to write a cookbook and I would call it Nana's Cookbook. I was so certain that I would do this that I had a bakers apron made with the first recipe on it. There was a picture of Paige on it when she was just over a year old. Paige will be 17 this year. How quickly time passes and how easy it is to put our dreams on the back burner. Anyway, for those who might be amused as well as for those who will not "get it", here is my first recipe. Enjoy!

So that was my first recipe. Hope you enjoy the journey with me.

Isaiah 65:it shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer.

Thank you, Lord for knowing my needs, my trials and my joys even before I speak of them.

Love,
Nana
