  1. What a great contest! I'll have to work on my cornbread recipe to give it a little extra something and see about submitting it. What are you submitting?!

  2. I was thinking main dish salad or slow cooker beef or maybe all three. My husband is actually the main cook at our house...he loves to cook and I love to eat so it works well.
