Resorting to begging.....

Below is an e-mail I sent out to all family and friends tonight... and it also applies to all my "online" adoption friends... if you are considering submitting a recipe we'd love to have you be apart of our adoption cookbook... (see post on 8-8-08 for details!)


Hello to everyone..

I really don't have much of an update to send out, but I am resorting to begging for recipes... I know that most of you are like me... and if someone I know and love had requested recipes it would be on my to do list... but, I would have not found the time to get around to it... or just plain forget...
so, this is my nice friendly reminder that I NEED recipes for the adoption cookbook asap!! I had originally set the deadline for Friday, Sept. 5th, but have extended it to Monday... so that if you need more time to get those yummy recipes to me you can.....
I've had SEVERAL people e-mail that they would get some to me, but haven't gotten them yet... so I wanted to remind all of you that I need them please...
thank you to everyone who has sent recipes to us... we appreciate it so much....

on adoption updates... we are still waiting... we are in line to be resubmitted to the consulate in NY and we should hear how quickly that will happen after Sept. 15th... so we are waiting... and God knows the perfect timing in all this!

thanks for your love, concern, and prayers.... I am praying for about 50 more recipes over the weekend... and please know that you are welcome to submit as many as you'd like..... (this is me begging....)


Have a blessed Friday!!

I'll be glad to send more recipes if needed- just let me know! Pray for us as Hurricane Ike may come our way- oh boy! I'll take the kids and my Mom west to my brother's or North to my in-laws if needed so we'll be fine.

Aww...nuts. I forgot all about the recipes! I'll get on them this weekend. What kind of little blurb are you looking for to go with them?

Here's hoping I have power also--Hanna doesn't look like she's going to be that nice to us.

And, as a side note, your little word verification (as I am now looking at it) is a MOUTHFUL!

warwcmdm but it is really wavy!!!
