Cookbook for Jennifer/N4M

Trouble is starting a cookbook of veggies recipes for Jennifer.  Here's what she needs:

 

Comment by TroubleonFire 2  Ladies, I need your help. I need receipes that are vegetables only. These are the restrictions for the receipes. No more sodium than 3-5%, there can not be any pasta, starch, no bread or potatoes or any kind of meat in the receipe. Jennifer has been diagnosed with Diabetes now, is on meds only. They put a port in on Tuesday this week. She is now getting chemo three times a week, which makes her pretty sick. She is having a difficult time finding receipes that her children can make for her so she can eat. I don't know why or understand why all the restrictions on her diet, other than they are planning on putting her on dialysis. And her body will not be able to process all the food she can no longer eat. Please, please help me. Also we need to send her cards and letters of encouragement to get her through this time she really needs the support. She has signed up for Chemo Angels yesterday and put me as her contact for that organization. For the new members, Jennifer is one of my best friends who is a Navy Mom, she has been battling cancer for almost 2 years now. She has Kidney cancer and Pancreas cancer, they have given her a 5 percent of survival rate for the next year to two years. She has hospice on standby. She basically no support from her immediate family, she only has us. Please, please is there some ladies out there that will be her Navy Mom Angels and write letters of encouragement and support, as well as send her little nick nacks that will cheer her up during her time that she has left. I will be forever in your debt. I would like to make her a cook book of her very own and have it printed and it be from all of her Navy Moms on the Heads at Ease project. Please if you have any questions please contact me through a PM and I will send you my email address and phone number. Thank You so much for listening to me. T

Hey T, what did you do about the pickles.  Love dills, so will be interested to know.  Okay, now for some wacky fun:

 

Gloop

8 oz.  white school glue

8 oz water

mix these 2 together

8 oz warm water

1 1/2 tsp Borax

mix these 2 together

 

combine both mixtures and stir well.  the gloop will thicken and continue to stir until all the water is mixed in.  It will be white, but you can use markers to color.  It's shiny and slimy and lots of fun!   Store in a sealed plastic bag.

Enjoy!

Good Evening Everyone!!

I have went on the cookbook site tonight and we have a total of 143 recipes. I am wanting about 500 but, we might not get there by June 30th. Here is the number of what we have so far:

Appetizers/Beverages total 18

Soup/Salad total 18

Vegetables total 10

Main Dishes total 33

Bread/Rolls total 10

Desserts total 39

Miscellaneous total 13

International total 2

Low Carb/Sugar Free total 1

I can move some of this around but I would like to have about 50 total in each section if possible. Please add when you can. We still have until June 30th do these. Starting this weekend I will get a price and start taking preorders for these cookbooks. we will have to pay for them when they are shipped to me so start thinking about how many you will need. These will make great christmas gifts.

thanks, linda

Trouble, Do you still need recipies?

 A friend of mine is a Vegan and sent me some that might work for you. I think she is trying to lure me over to the dark side.LOL
