Sunshine

You may have noticed that my blogging came to a halt last Thursday. I lot a great friend that day, my dog Sunshine. I got Sunny when I was in 6th grade, and she has been with my family and I for the past 13 years. She has lived in our house for the past 13 years, so each room has a memory of her. She was one of the smartest dogs I have ever seen. She knew when you were done with dinner, and that we were hiding the cup full of ice. She was the only dog that I knew that ate carrots while she was giving birth to puppies, and would eat the vegetables as you were cutting up a salad. It will be hard to pick up the pieces, especially since we had to put down her 2 children a little less than 9 months ago.

That is why I have been absent the past few days. I pray that you haven't had to experience what I had to go through. If you have, how did you cope? What did you do to mend your heart?  I'd love your suggestions, leave me a comment.


Tomorrow we will get back to our regularly scheduled blog posts. Thanks for sticking with me through this everyone!

Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

Vegetable Lasagna Recipe

I made this lasagna recipe, and I think my grandma declared it the best thing she's ever eaten. She kept going back to the dish, and cutting off a small slice. Each time she would say, "This is so good!" So, if only she liked it, my day was made. However, every member of my family loved this dish, and I know you will too! It is a perfect way to use up Summer vegetables, and enjoy a delicious meal! My comments are in italics!
