Last night all ten of us met at House of James where we were warmly welcomed by Lando Klassen and staff
Seeing two books displayed so beautifully cannot help but deepen the impact for us
on what God has done!
There was a lot of laughter and excitement as we lined up at the table
and chatted with old and new friends!
We were treated to live piano music, freshly baked treats from the new book,
coffees, lates, smoothies . . .
Our book signing today is in Chilliwack ~ at the beautiful gift store Winks ~ Saturday 1-3
Abbotsford ~ Lepp Farm Market ~ Sunday 12:30 -3:00

Hi, I'm Sharon from Virginia. I live about ten miles south of Washington, DC. I enjoy your website and visit it each day; bought your first cookbook and the pattern to make your darling aprons!! I would love to win your new cookbook and I e-mailed your post to my mom and DIL. Don't have a web site of my own!!! Hope that qualifies me to enter your contest!!
ReplyDeleteHi, Tracey here from Winnipeg. So wonderful to see that your second book is already looking so successful. I purchased two copies of the new book already and will be giving them away as bridal shower gifts, so I guess I will need to order another one for myself unless I am fortunate enough to win a copy. I will be posting this to facebook to share with my friends and family. Have a great weekend ladies!
ReplyDeleteSharing......what a strong word. I love your website and use many of your wonderful foods to share with friends in need. It may be an illness, death or just someone who needs a kindness. I have found in my life that sharing a casserole, dessert or whatever I might whip up can be the difference between "sanity and insanity". Receiving or giving, it works both ways. I would love a cookbook so I can share some of the yummy foods from the book. Mary Hostetler
ReplyDeleteHello, Greg here from Lethbridge. We are all looking forward to the new cook book with the reciepes and stories. I find that everytime I use your first cookbook different memories are relived. Sitting around the table saturday nights gives my family the opportunity to share our lives with each other and create new memories. Thanks Mennonite Girls Can Cook!

ReplyDeleteThank you for your recipes (and books). As a person who has had to eat gluten free for over 30 years, I was grateful to find your website several years ago. My husband can now enjoy foods that he grew up with, since many of the family recipes have been adapted by you all. I do share your website with many friends who need GF recipes and they are most grateful and I will continue sharing your website! ekh
