Not a Texas BBQ – Mum’s BBQ Chicken
This is a family favorite of Nancy’s. But, she didn’t have the recipe in any of her collections. Sister Jane came to the rescue multiple times because we kept losing it!

A Taste of Italy – Penne Arribbiata
Within a month of Dennis and I getting married, we were on our way to Southern Italy for three years. It was Dennis’ last duty station in the Air Force. It was an interesting assignment in many ways. There were lots of visitors to his unit that needed to be entertained and provided dinner. So
