The featured article this week is all about one of my favorite convenience foods.  Now, it may not seem like a very exciting topic, but this one recipe has saved me, literally, hundreds of dollars over the years.  Since many quick and easy recipes call for a can of cream-of-something soup, I think you'll also find this simple tip worth a read.  Please scroll down and take a look.

Every week in our recipe sharing section, we feature a recipe submitted by a reader. Since we're talking about convenience foods and pantry staples you can make right at home, I thought I'd post a recipe from a reader for a quick and easy staple most everyone has in their refrigerator.  Be sure to check it out. 

This week's quote and story will have you cheering on Spring and celebrating all the 'seasons' of life and what's in store for us all.  I hope you'll take time to read and reflect, especially, on the story which was suggested by one of our readers.
