Mennonite Girls Fly to Fresno


Our aprons are pressed and our bags are packed
 as we anticipate  a couple of days at the Fresno MCC Sale.
Four of us are going . . . Ellen, Judy, Lovella and I.
We look forward to meeting many of our visitors!
We have been asked to share the MGCC story, teach a cooking class
 and help promote the sale of the cookbook,
that is helping street kids, through MCC work in the Ukraine.
I am a little nervous, but mostly excited,
and look forward to what the next few days hold.
We'll keep you posted on this, yet another, unexpected adventure!

Have a great trip! I was just browsing through your cookbook this morning looking for a recipe to try. I was re-reading the short bios of each of you and thinking how far this journey has brought you. I look forward to reading about this adventure...

I too smiled at the photo, in my minds eye seeing/remembering all there was to see that the camera lens missed!
Prayerfully wishing you everything wonderful in Fresno!
Wish I was with you !
