I am a novice writer and painter who loves to be creative. I love singing but can't sing without a hymnal, except for children's songs. I love to make up my own songs and love the old hymns. I love to garden and got that love from my Mom and Dad who taught be everything I know from planting to harvesting to canning. I'm happy gardening, walking with my pug, JD Sir Winston Churchill, painting, and crafting. I love to spend Saturday's sitting in my rocker going through a bible study. I love working with elementary school aged children and seeing them use their creative gifts. I have taught Sunday school for a number of years and taught in the public schools for 18 years. I might say I'm retired but I spend most of my time subbing and enjoy it immensely. The kids spark my own creativeness.

  2. Looks like a good cake and I do like chocolate. Do you cream the butter and then add sugar, coke, etc to the frosting?

  5. It sounds delicious of course it doesn’t have any calories in it. I always remember the coca-cola salad mom made with 1-l6 oz can crushed pineapple, 1 small pkg. cherry jello, l1 small pkg lemon jello, 1 cup celery, chopped, 1 cup nuts, chopped and 24 oz. coca-cola. Heat undrained pineapple to boiling. Remove from heat; stir in jello and pour in Coca-cola. Chill until slightly thickened. Add other ingrediantsand chill to set.
