This time I sent to Theresa who lives in Oklahoma. As soon as I heard about the tornadoes, I emailed her to make sure she was safe. She lives far enough away that she was not in their path. Praise God! Check out her blog to see how I spoiled (her words) her. Hannah wasContinue reading “Foodie Pen Pals – May edition”

The boys and I went and got lunch before heading to another place. The Greek salad I gotContinue reading “My new favorite foodie place”
