Hello Friends!.....I Hope everybody's doing really good today!
Well...I've been reading again. I have books to tell you about. I did read the second book in the Claire series: Claire Knows Best... Loved it. I had originally bought the first book: Leave it to Claire for my sister one day when I was cruising on Amazon looking for interesting books. It talks about situations in the life of the woman in the book that were kind of similar to stuff in my sister's life and I thought she'd like it; So I ordered it for her. (I ended up reading it before I mailed it to her. See how rude I am.) I did mail it to her, and then I ordered the next one for myself. Finished reading that one too. Now I'm waiting for the final one the author has written so far. It came out in January 2007, so it's fairly new. It's on the way. It's called: I Love Claire by, Tracey Bateman. These stories are about the life of a divorced woman and her kids, loving The Lord, and living their everyday lives; The ups and downs, laughing with them and sometimes shedding a tear with them. These books are super. They are fast reads. Very enjoyable. I totally recommend them. I also re-bought another of the first book that I had mailed to my sister so I can have the whole set. (I am such a book girl. Missybookgirl.) Right now I'm reading another one by Tamar Myers: Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Crime.
It's a goody also. A good read. A fun read.

The recipe I have for you today is:
SHOOFLY PIE (Makes 8 servings)
1 nine inch unbaked pie crust
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
pinch of ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick cold butter (1/2 cup)
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup unsulphured molasses
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt. Cut the butter into pats and add it to the flour mixture. Using a fork, mash the butter into the flour mixture until you get a texture like course crumbs. Combine the water, molasses and baking soda. Pour into the unbaked pie crust. Then spoon the crumb mixture onto the liquid. Bake at 375 degrees for thirty five to forty minutes. Best if served at room temperature.*

I found another good product I wanted to share with you:
(It's a new scent) Ultra Downey -Cashmere & Silk fresh
Makes your clothes, towels, blankets, coats, EVERYTHING, smell so good.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Next month we have a wedding to go to. It's going to be fun. No promises, but I'm going to try to get pictures of me and my husband for you. I talk about him all the time, but haven't showed him to you yet. I'll try to get pictures of the kids too. They should be there. I'm not positive on that.
The plants and the trees and flowers are growing so good now! (and the grass!) -I did want to get out there and try to do a little weeding, but boy did we get rain yesterday!
It rained 2 1/4 inches yesterday! ~Normal for the whole month of April is 1 1/4 inches!
Everybody's yard is going to be so green! This weekend is supposed to be 70 - 80 degrees. I'll try to do the weeding then. I hope I haven't bored you out of your mind today.
Have a fun day! Never forget how great you are! Blessings! -Missygirl*
