  1. Oh Christy! I remember many, many years ago when my only child, a daughter got in the car with her daddy wearing her freshly starched & ironed plaid jumper, white blouse and her first pair of saddle oxfords (Be-Bops!). She had her ribbons in her hair, pencil box, crayons and her Big Chief tablet all ready for her first day in the first grade. She was smiling radiantly, waving at me while I was standing in the driveway looking like a dishelved mess crying & trying to wave while stuffing my nose with tissue & wiping the tears away. Of course, as soon as they drove away, I retreated to her toy-filled bedroom, fell into her bed and covered myself up in her little girl warmth & stuffed animals and dollies. Yes, I stayed there until I had to get dressed for work. That’s when I noticed the crayon love note with a zillion hearts on the table. “Bee sweat Mommie. I lov schol & you.” She is now the mother of two handsome teenage boys and is a 5th grade teacher. Life is good. Thank you for sharing your warm & wonderful website.

  2. I make these aleady they are great!!! Thanks Christy……Keep them coming…ALSO GREAT WITH ROSEMARY!!!!!!

  3. Christy,

    I tried your pork chop recipe Monday. first time I had ever fried a pork chop! OMG they were wonderful! My husband just loved them. Thanks so much for a great idea. I hope you have tons of great crock pot dishes for this fall/winter, Teachers among many others need to be able to start it in the morning and eat it when the day finally ends. Don’t worry your kids will do great and probably love school more than you will believe, and nothing will make them happier than coming home to tell mom all about it. Lucky you! You still have a bunch years before they decide you are too (fill in the blank) to stand, luckily the teen years do also eventually end! 🙂

  4. I was really hopeing u were gonna do a tutorial for those taters, cause they look soooooooooooooooooo yummy! I am going to make these really really really really soon! Thanks a bunch!

  6. Hey Christy,

    I am thinking back to when my daughter started school. Now I am thinking about my granddaughter who is 3 years old. It is hard, isn’t it ? They are such great little people. Anyway, thank you again for your recipes and posts. Love and hang in there as they say.

  7. sending you a moma’s hug from one moma to another. I know how you feel, when my baby got on the big bus almost 25 years ago, I cried until 10. You will survive it and so will your baby, Love and hugs………..<3
