I used to get with at least one other gal a couple times a year to get ideas for meals. We forget seasonal cooking too. I mean, who cooks a meatloaf in the summer??? It is too hot for the oven. Other, quicker meals are for summer. Also, for dessert I used to make "Summer Pudding" which was a crisp on the stove in a pan with sweetened dumplings on top instead of crisp in the oven.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15571791171336069727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55554914262786074.post-87829961564840479372009-07-17T14:20:20.672-07:002009-07-17T14:20:20.672-07:00I just wanted to say that I loved the comment you ...I just wanted to say that I loved the comment you left on Natalie's blog concerning the Q and A. I may not agree with Chris, but did fully agree with your stance on how you are handling your hubby's thoughts on this. What a blessing you are to him. I also thought it was so great how we could all discuss this so lovingly.<br /><br />xoxo, Veronica in CAVeronica @ Luv My Quiver Full Of Arrowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11224744767805556528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55554914262786074.post-84195559946340175332009-07-17T08:19:27.044-07:002009-07-17T08:19:27.044-07:00I loved all of these suggestions!
