The Mennonite Girls Can Cook have some announcements. We started our journey together when I was still covering my grey roots and had a “Bob”. Now I’m letting my grey shine with a shorter more layered cut. I also started this journey 30 pounds lighter. Last Friday, Lovella posted one of the first recipes that appeared on our blog in June of 2008. Here’s that post with our first announcement, Zwieback. Judy posted our last Bread for the Journey on Sunday. On Monday June 11, 2018, Lovella posted Ten Years of Mennonite Girls Can Cook.
I’m working on my own 10 year post which will be full of photos of our memorable events. This is mostly for my benefit so I have everything in chronological order. Last night we had a casual impromptu dinner at Lovella’s home in British Columbia. Seven of the 10 could be there with our husbands. So much to be thankful for. Dear and I stayed the night at an Oxford Suites hotel in Bellingham just across the border from Lovella’s home. We are really pleased with this chain. We’ll head home today with a couple stops along the way.
I like the new look here! Congratulations on 10 years of MGCC – what will be next? God knows!
Such a lovely journey; thank you for taking us along. God bless you, yours and the work of your hands and heart.
That sounds wonderful! What a blessing the ten of you are!
Hello, I love the photo, lovely group of ladies. I like all the cute aprons. Congrats on the 10 years together. Sounds like a great gathering. Enjoy your day and new week!
…time goes fast when you are having fun!
How exciting. I love the photo. Ten years is a long time. I’m going to head over to the links now.
10 years and 10 amazing women!!! Love you all. Your new look here is so nice. I’ve been trying to make some changes on mine but have run into a few troubles doing it. Safe travels home ….
So many changes!
Look at that! I can comment as myself again. Things are looking up!
Yippee, this makes me happy!
Although it is sad to see a chapter end when you’re enjoying the book, it is a wonderful thing to turn the page and see what is next! Blessings on all of you as you turn the page!
Great photo! Ten years is something.
Sad to see MGCC end but it is a treasure trove as is for wonderful recipes and will continue to be well used. God bless you all for all your work on it over the years!
Happy Anniversary! You have come a long way and I love your website! I have gotten to know you and Julie through my blogging and it brought me even more joy, knowing you were behind the “scene”, so to speak.
P.S. when I read the title of your post today, I thought you were going to anounce the sale of your house. 🙂 Hoping for you!
