    Miss Paula,
    I adore you. You are so sweet and precious. I lost my mama in May of 2000, only 6 months after I was married. When my baby was born in 2002, I watched you religiously. You sound like her and I would rock and nurse while you were on TV. Your beautiful voice soothed a new mama and a little baby boy.May God continue to bless and keep you. I love you, Stephanie ❤️

      This is so sweet, that you felt close to Paula after your mother passed away. Surely her staff could read some of these messages, and reply, especially to this comment you have made!!!

    Teachers LOVE the kind of gift you are talking about! Every teacher I know and there are four in my family alone, would prefer a nice glass jar of homemade cookies or candies than another teachers ornament! They get so many gifts that sometimes the ones that fill the belly or warm them up leave more lasting memories than the ones who fill their houses to the brim!

    That peppermint candy ice cream is my absolute favorite as well! Does Blue Bell ever make it? I am a Texan and I live 2 hours from where Blue Bell started!!! That Ice Cream is my favorite brand! I also love the Sweet Cream at a Marble Slab Creamery. I also went to Texas Tech university and the town that school is in, called Lubbock, has a place called Sheridan’s Creamery where they serve frozen custard and delicious doesn’t even begin to describe it. Their dairy is bought from a small farm with Jersey cows. I always get a shake with coconut flakes and coconut cream blended in it with extra whipped cream on top with 2 maraschino cherries! The texture and flavor is close to butter due to the extremely high fat content! Hands down ice cream is probably my favorite desert other than rich rich cheese cake and dense moist cake.

Save a lot of time .I'm giving it as a gift to bowling team mates and family!! They'll love it. Thanks again for the recipe. Merry Christmas!

You guys might know what I'm talking about .But they're wonderful but this sounds even better.I used to use them glass jars Paula...I would fill them up with homemade granola when my child was little. She would give them out at Christmas to her teachers it was really good.I haven't made any of that in a long time. Love you all on here ♥️Paula, Eddie ,Teresa y'all have a beautiful day😀
