I found this website last night while searching desperately for the Anne of Green Gables biscuit recipe -- but didn't find the recipe. It seems that I have landed in a new land, complete with a new language. Since I'm already immersed in learning conversational Hebrew, another new language might be a bit overwhelming, but I'm game to try. I'm a Pastor's wife, nearing 70, overworked and underpaid, but never undervalued! Life might be better, but I'm not sure how. I'm looking forward to exploring this site further and hopefully not making too big a fool of myself in the process.

When I grow up ...

Welcome Claudette. If you ever find the recipe that you were looking for please share. I love the Anne of Green Gables series. WOW Hebrew how is that going? I have not tried but, think that would be wonderful to know.

Hi, I am very new too. I was thinking as I read your post, that we all have so much in common. I love Anne of Green Gables. I adopted the phrase "kindred spirits" from her books. My truly close friends are kindred spirits. I think that if we could ever have a Farmgirl roundup there would be kindred spirits everywhere. (: Dawn

Welcome Claudette from Southeast Texas. This is a great site and a lot of us are confused. You will get less confused as you go along and don't be afraid to jump right in and ask questions. If we don't know that answer we will be confused with you until someone knows the answer.
