I love chocolate and I love pickles but not together! NOW.. I will say deep fried pickles aren't too bad but I prefer really cool and crisp fresh out of the fridge pickles.<br /><br />She was Amanda thank you for saying so.Kelly @ turned UP to ELEVEN!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17316990503032552760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2220506856849781857.post-24315917361371037232010-06-30T13:59:03.707-05:002010-06-30T13:59:03.707-05:00I think it's such a blessing that your mom met...I think it's such a blessing that your mom met M before she passed. There have been so many days that I wish Papa had met Neal. They would have hit it off instantly, I just know. I know you miss your mom and you always will. There are good days and bad days and it will always be like that. I have them, too. Sometimes I like to think that the "village" that's raising Shep includes people like your mom and my grandparents. Everyone is up there, teaching him different things about the world. He's going to be so well-rounded when I finally join him! <br /><br />As for the veggies, maybe you can post what you end up doing with them? I am in need of some yummy summer recipes that don't include mayonnaise (as much as I love those). AND...can you believe it...right when we move out of our house, we got huge bunches of grapes on our grapevine!! Oh well. Maybe the new owners will love them, too!Allysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05536029582533052135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2220506856849781857.post-8612603226581852082010-06-30T11:50:18.835-05:002010-06-30T11:50:18.835-05:00Really off topic but...

I lost my dad two years ago and I know how hard it was as an adult. A [minor] child losing a parent is almost too sad to think about.<br /><br />You and K are doing a wonderful thing. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
