I will be joining Designs by Gollum, Life as Mom, Grocery Cart Challenge, Mom Trends, Ann Kroeker, and Amy's Finer Things for their swaps today. We'll be back to business as usual next week starting with Menu-Planning Monday. Thanks again for joining me for a week of old recipes! Have a great weekend!
