My sister, Tara, is getting married in May. We had a wedding shower for her at my mother's house on Saturday. It was a really nice shower. She had some of her friends come, along with some of our family. Pictured above is "the bride to be" Tara, with one of her friends (forgive me for not putting your name but I know I'll mess up the spelling), mom who is holding my youngest, "D", and Nana, our grandmother. Tara was "showered" with lots of household items and we all had a really nice time.

I found you through MPM, those recipes look wonderful, I really would like to have one of the cheesecake bars now. I was wondering if you could also share the recipe you use for the crab stuffed snow peas? You could email it directly to me if you do not want to post. sleeth_wv4h at hotmail dot com
