ReplyDeleteI made this for part of the Mothers Day luncheon I took to my 95 year old mother on Mothers Day. She loved it! My brother and sister in law loved it! Even the woman who was serving the lunch loved it! But I forgot to pin it on Pinterest. It has taken me a while to find it again.
ReplyDeleteThis time I am saving it on my Pinterest board for Let your food be your medicine. It won't become lost again!
aww, I'm so glad you liked it! :)
