EASTER RECIPES AND MORE COMING

Jean's Easter Recipes start tomorrow, go through and including next Saturday.  Hope that you enjoy them.

I will be on when I can be, but my friend Nancy's husband, Butch, is going in for surgery next Tuesday.  As Nancy is handicapped and can't drive, I will be driving her back and forth to the hospital which is about 25 miles one way from here.  So I may not be on here as much as I usually am.  Prayers would be  appreciated.  We have been friends for almost 50 years. 

Good news is Mabel, Vickie's Doggie, Pierre's internet girlfriend is doing much better.  The vet says she may be getting off her medicines.  Mabel is getting back to her being herself.  She had her fourth birthday, yesterday.  Happy Birthday Mabel.  Your prayers have helped so much.

My back is also much better than it was before and I really appreciate all your prayers.  It was so kind of you to remember me in your prayers.

I am not trying to push any particular religion, faith, etc. in using these pictures.  The reason I chose this church was because of the cross in front of the church.  That cross is there 365 days a year.  In one of the recipe posts, I tell a little about the church.  But I don't want anyone thinking that I am pushing any certain religion.I'm not   

On April 1st,  Jean has her posts.  On Wednesday she has the recipe back that I had to take off while she was moving.  She has cut the recipe so you don't have to make so many cookies.  We have  checked and re-checked this recipe to make sure it is right this time.

I hope to have some interesting posts coming up and Pierre has a a few, too.  Just thought I would let you know what it coming up in the future.

Jean, Martha, Olive and their families plus myself with Pierre wish you all a Happy Easter.  I think this saying at Christmas is true in Easter: "Jesus is the reason for the season."

P.S.
I was in Newark, New York today and the Newark Diner is open again for those of you that were interested in the post I had a while back.  It was closed because the owner was in the hospital, but he is out now cooking again.

Hi plaingrl,
I don't know as Richard put them on here for me. I will have to contact him. When he set up the blog I told him I wanted them on and he put them on.

Glad Mabel is doing better, thankful your back is too. Hope all goes well for Butch, and Nancy too. I love the church photo, you don't often see one at that angle.

Thank you Annie for your compliments. They are really appreciated. That was the only church I could find with a cross in front of it.
