A VERSE TO SHARE
This past weekend, Mr. Loaves and Dishes and I went to the movies to see “Won’t you be my neighbor”. Something really struck me as I sat in the theater in tears. There are a LOT of people in the world who don’t feel loved.
You, my friend, are the farthest thing from alone. Email me at wendi(at sign)loavesanddishes.net and I'll email you back as quick as I can.

What sweet people, very touching to see your thoughtful and gentle reminder to gift people who might need their spirits lifted around holidays. There are many elderly and waitresses who need a special life on holidays when they cannot be with family. A note signed by your family names does avoid awkward moments. I needed to locate information on how to kabob canned baby new potatoes. My family lived in Asia and could not find baby potatoes, we are Americans, at the commissary we found canned potatoes. I did not know what temperature. Without your recipes I would have broiled the potatoes. My mother used a rub of squeezed garlic in our garlic press with olive oil, rosemary and white pepper I prefer Hungarian Paprika.

also, with cost of living here in uk (no doubt around the world too) tinned veg is rather cheap - also we can get bake beans for 35p (as at todays date) so maybe a tray bake ..... tinned sausage, beans potato and veg might be a cheap filling meal for a family. Bring on these ideas. !!!!!!!!!!!!!
