Wake up and Eat…This.

by

Last night's gathering was great, as always.  While the split-pea soup ended up cooking too long and getting a little too thick, it was still eaten by all.  After picking lots of lettuce from the garden, we ended up with a nice big VERY FRESH salad and since I wasn't making any other dishes, I made 2 Shepherd's pies, and that was a good decision!  Michele was with us, in … [Read more...] about Wake up and Eat…This.
