I have been married to a wonderful Christian man since 1976. The Lord has blessed us with two daughters and two sons. I consider each day the Lord gives me on the earth yet another chance to serve Him.

This looks yummy and easier than I would have guessed to make. This is one of Mike's favorites too.
