Silly really, as she's a fabulous cook. But she wanted girls, as she's told us on many occasions; imagine her disappointment when me and big bro arrived. So it's great that the little 'uns are keen and enjoying themselves!

Is that his sister next to him in the photographs? <br /><br />A short while after I became a vegetarian thirty years ago, the first Moosewood Cookbook was published. I have prepared almost every recipe. The soups are exceptional. <br /><br />Katzen has followed that first cookbook with many others. I'm grateful to hear about "Pretend Soup." I'll purchase it for my great-great nieces and nephews.

When I was a kid, there was nothing more scrumptious than a cake frosted with 7-minute icing and covered with coconut! Seems like most kids don't like raisins either.Ms Sparrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03417670251423549014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7002258242339978362.post-6214508071832284062011-08-18T19:52:09.516-05:002011-08-18T19:52:09.516-05:00What a great gift idea Augie had.
