On a mission with fun, tasty recipes

Welcome back. For the past week Fred and I were in Lynch, Kentucky for our first Christian mission trip.

When we live in Florida we attend a wonderful church, First Baptist Church of Umatilla. They have planned a mission trip to Lynch, Kentucky (a few miles from Hazard). For the next couple weeks my column will be full of yummy recipes and then I will fill you in on our experience.

I hope you enjoy the recipes I am sharing. The first is for a Jell-O salad that is my favorite. You must treat yourself to this jellied delight.
