Jessica Michelle

There is a young lady who makes me count myself lucky that she came into our lives...my daughter-in-law, Jessica. She's a young mother who greets life with enthusiasm. This year for the first time, my lawn was decorated with hay bales, pumpkins, and there are even ghosts hanging from the mimosa tree in the side yard. She did it all by herself, for her son and yeah, for herself, too. She's excited because she's cooking her first Thanksgiving dinner this year, and is already hard at work on the menu. Seeing her enthusiasm makes me remember my own.

She is the only woman I've ever met who can go grocery shopping with coupons and come home with sixty dollars worth of items that she got for less than twenty. And the woman can COOK! She makes Zuppa Tuscano even better than Olive Garden, if you can imagine that.

Jess has started a new blog here, and I hope you can drop by to welcome her at http://handmadethoughts2.blogspot.com/

I understand she'll be sharing recipes for her soups, home made breads, etc. :-)
