Okay I'm convinced. Let's put it to atcoin.

Jean, Wow, a chef! I am privileged that you responded to my question and I think your idea has won out, I have all the ingredients on hand, except for the party rye. I love your website and I am going to try your pork chops with cranberry sauce prepared in the slow cooker, sounds delicious... now I had better get my dinner going!

Glad I stopped by and read your story, cjs! Thanks for sharing and I wish you continued success during your culinary journey. bunyap

I have to say it is a pleasure to be to be exposed to professional chefs. Just being a home cook humbles me in your presence. I will indeed look for your printed work. Thank you.

Jean, what a lovely site and some really nice recipes!!! I'm definitely trying the Refried Bean/chicken recipe for the slow cooker. I've always enjoyed our interaction on the cooking.com board. You are a class act, woman. pea
