I know that its been awhile since I've done a blog, but I'm back. I am going to make some trash potatoes for my husband and myself for supper on Monday. Junk potatoes are made on a grill or over a camp fire. Take potatoes and slice them up, put them in foil add onions, green peppers, and spices. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, any kind of spice that you like on your potatoes. Fold foil in packets and place on grill or on a grill top over an open fire. Cook til fork tender. Enjoy with your favorite meat cooked along with your potatoes.

Today would have been my Grandma Ruffings 96th birthday. We were blessed to have her for so many years. I would like to tell you a little about Her. My Grandma raised 10 children from the age of 44 alone. The Children were Mary Alice, Barb, Maureen, Paul, Jane and Joan(identical twins), Margaret, Bill, Helen, and an infant that died at 2 weeks Bobby. She enjoyed spending time with her children and grandchildren. Speaking of grandchildren she had a boat load. There is, Deb, Renee, Mike, Cindy, Johnny, Bonnie, Patty, Rhonda, Kenny, Valerie, Cheryl, Eddie, Billy, Paul, Greg, Jill, Tom, Tracy, Jeff, Daniel, Amy, Mary, and Bobby, and Phil that passed away in infancy. She also has 36 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren. I believe that when grandmas time came She was ready to be with the love of Her life once more. I miss my Grandma especially today, Her 96th birthday. I will always have my memories of Her, though. They are good memories, camping out in Her back yard with the whole family, Christmas, Easter, and other times. I just had to tell everyone about the wonderful woman that I called Grandma. In Memory Of Mary L. Ruffing.
