My Mom was a fantastic ranch cook with a pie recipe dating back to 1952–she got it from our family doctor’s wife, Mrs. Barglow who was from Germany.
So I decided to make a cookbook of Mom’s recipes for a Christmas gift for family members. It turned out so beautiful that I want to offer it to anyone who would like a copy.
It is full color and 20 pages of pie, cake and Christmas candy recipes in my Mom’s own handwriting–I scanned her recipe cards with smears and stains of many years of use.

I will continue producing a new cookbook once a year until I run out of recipes. Another really special recipe she used regularly is a roll recipe that was my Grandma Horner’s, so I will probably do breads next year!

I am a retired teacher. I taught middle school for 20 years and then worked at the district level for 7 years.
I love to write, read, dance and travel. Computers are also a passion of mine.
My brother and I inherited our family ranch five years ago, so I am now a ranch manager!
My new writing project is a biography of Marshall Flippo, a 91-year-old world renowned square dance caller. Flippo recently passed away. I have over 40 hours of recorded interviews with him that will be the basis of his biography
I am also working on a women's fiction and a poetry collection. Retirement is great!
