Friends, Family and the County Fair

2017-10-30T16:28:17-05:00

I have always loved the county fair.  Growing up in small town, going to the fair was the highlight of our year.  I will always remember participating in the 4-H animal contests or cheering for my mom as she won a blue ribbon for one of her amazing vegetables or one of her delicious baked goods.  Some [...]

There is not a lot that tastes better than a homemade cookie baked with love. I always use my great grandmother’s 100-year-old sugar cookie recipe that has been passed down through my family for many years.
