  1. These are great. I have made them twice now. I found it difficult to cut the roll in half so I just unroll a handful at a time and then cut them in half before putting in a plastic container. Thanks so much for sharing this one !
     
  2. I used to use this as a home-made baby wipe when my daughter was a baby. However, my "recipe" didn't have the baby oil in it. Anyway, it worked great and I used it quite often during emergencies when I was out of wipes! If you have a baby, you always have baby shampoo and an empty baby wipe container. If you can find a roll of paper towels, you are in business without going to the store! A true life saver!!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in eastern NM in a small community. We farm and I am also the elementary secretary at the school. I've been at the school going on 14 years, moving this year from high school to elem. Nice change. It's a small school (250 pre-k to 12) so it's a very rewarding job. I know all the students and I love them all. My husband & I both have our own motorcycle, although I don't ride as much as he does. I love to cook, but I like to cook for a lot of people and you can tell when I start something. Usually it ends up being for an army when it's just my husband & I, our kids are grown. I don't know if I have a favorite cookbook, I just like them all and I get alot of recipes off the internet now. My passion is my God and my family. Pet Peeves-someone thinking they are better than me. I would like to travel if I had a month off with my family. Just take my time and enjoy the sights.
