I received a copy of a wonderful cookbook prepared by Shari Marsh. It is made up of recipes from the Marsh family. The book includes those from recipe cards, slips of paper and backs of church bulletins. Shari said her mother-in-law was an excellent cook and now we can enjoy some of her recipes, too.

She said – “I just spent 15 minutes searching for my phone in my car, while using my flashlight on my phone.” Oh no, could this be old age?
