They look all very yummy!
Some do look very familiar.
Maybe when mom sees them you could have a credit for what she taught you -- beginning with the frying of eggs when you were three years old!
I have a whole recipe can from my mom that I'm going to mail you!
That will be fun!
She made the very best chili!
Love ya!
