Hi Friends!

Happy Spring! Despite my sneezy, sniffly nose and runny, itchy eyes, I love this time of year.  I love the return of the warm sun and the beginnings of new life. 

I’m looking out the window right now and there are daffodils and hyacinth blooming in our backyard.

The trees are covered with buds and the birds are singing.  Aw, sweet Spring, we welcome you with open arms!!

We have a lot of family get-togethers in the Spring.  Between St. Patrick’s Day and Easter and numerous family birthdays, it seems we are celebrating something almost every weekend.  Here is my go-to Jell-O salad recipe.  It is creamy and delicious, and everyone seems to love it.  Enjoy!
