"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbors children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."

— Marjorie Pay Hinckley

Yippee!

I just ordered the All American 921 pressure cooker/canner from Amazon! Plus, a store here had a promo going when you buy gift cards you get a coupon to spend in their store, so I bought Amazon gift cards and with the coupon bought 4 boxes of wide mouth canning lids!! I can't wait to recieve it and cook something in it!!
Too bad we aren't having turkey for thanksgiving this year, I could have tried a turkey in it!!
