This dish is quick and easy to
prepare and also very tasty. I enjoy

round baling. I enjoy gardening

We live on Evergreen Hill. Karl
is involved with Evergreen
Kabinetry. We raised broilers for
Pennfield in our two chicken
houses. I, jack of all trades, prefer
homemaking. I especially enjoy
making bread from scratch—no
mixes.
We love our nine grandkids and
number 10 is on the way, especial
ly when the whole Evergreen gang
(22 plus) gets together every Sun
day evening for a meal. We have
good food made with our favorite
recipes, some from Lancaster
