 Full Plate Thursday Background Story
When we were young and just starting out in life sometimes we did not have a lot of money. Most of our friends were having to stretch the dollars at the end of the month just like us. My girlfriends and I decided that we would pool our food for some of the evening meals right before payday... the last week of the month. I have some of the fondest memories from those days. We would all bring our food together and we had some great food and great fellowship. We would get the food on the table and everything ready, someone would bless the food and then the hostess would say "come fill your plate".

  9. I shared my recipe for Macadamia and Dried Cherry Cookies. This recipe is gluten free, but it can be made with "normal" ingredients if you don't have an issue with gluten.
    This is a nice recipe because the cookies are not too sweet.

    Thank you for hosting Miz Helen!
