Welcome to Day 4 of the 31 Days of Slow Cooking. I am a special education teacher by day and a mother by night. Sort of like being a Superhero. Lots of my stories are about my students or my two boys. Both keep me entertained. Right now all I am hearing about from the […]

Stone Fruit Fruit Salad in a Glass Jar

Once again, Hubby raved about them. The boys ate plain cheese or cheese with bacon bits quesadillas instead of these delicious quesadillas. Oh […]
