    Clara your sweet just like your cookies…God bless you! My Nona would make those same cookies…She didn’t let anything go to waste! If she were alive today, she’d be 104. She is the one that taught me about Jesus. I’m thinking you tell your family about Jesus too. God bless you Clara.

    Clara, I just stopped by to say that one of my old high school friends loves your videos and the recipes you share. Please do keep yourself in good health, I happen to like them too! Your stories are also quite enlightening. =) Makes me wish I had listened to my grandmothers tales when I was younger.
