I saw your posting on a Slow Cook for a Year website and was wondering if I could get your Pina Colada Cake recipe...??? There is where I found you originally... http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/2008/06/crockpot-coconut-cake-recipe.html That cake you described sounds amazing, and I am looking for recipes that use my bottle of Pina Colada mix - I don't really like Pina Colada drinks. However I am not having much success... So I am hoping that you may be able and willing to share??? Here is the only other good Pina Colada Mix recipe that I found... it's for Red Lobster's Coconut Shrimp http://www.razzledazzlerecipes.com/shrimp-recipes/coconut-shrimp.htm Thanks Anna Hi there!

It has helped me to remember that God truly IS in control of our lives. As the wife and also the mother of soldiers, both of whom have been or currently are deployed to Iraq, I sometimes lose sight of this. Thanks once again. Thank you for your post.

It is a huge change, but most days I still feel like it has been worth it. The weather is different, the people are different, food is different - for us it has been like moving to a whole other country (or planet!). Good luck to you!

Welcome to the Northeast. How is base life? How are you adjusting? You know what's weird? It's not nearly as far to New Jersey from Long Island in actual mileage but int terms of time, it would take you, like, five hours to get here. Are you amazed and shocked at the traffic? And by the sheer numbers of people here? I think you all are so brave to make the move and I have to say, I admire your husband so much for taking this step and providing for his family. Doesn't it make you get all squishy inside? Anyway, welcome! I am going to post some recipes if my friend gives them to me. She made her own tortillas! Dude! Welcome to the Northeast.

I thank God that you two are together, and I know that even though Knight has always has a wonderful heart, you have given him such devotion and loving direction that he would not be complete without you. I already miss you guys like crazy since my own move, and I do believe that once I start working I will have to have a special savings just for airline tickets to come see you!! Take care of my bro, Jet and hmmmm.......Bella? (little nod to twilight and it means beautiful as well??) You truly have been the best thing that ever happened to my brother.
