Estimated Delivery

I received an email from Morris Cookbooks regarding Ashley's cookbook, looks like the estimated delivery date for the cookbook is on or before July 7. This has taken a lot longer than I expected but we did run into some issues with the graphics. The cover of the cookbook had to be redone in-house. Which means the graphic department at Morris Cookbooks had to completely redo the cover, which also means that there was a price increase in the production of the cookbooks. Not only did the cover had to be redesigned but one of the tabbed index pages was missing in my original digital images that I sent the team at Morris Press. None of the issues surrounding the cookbook have been Morris' fault, it's been mine or my original graphic designer. Despite all the setbacks in getting this cookbook published, I am positive it will be a beautiful cookbook.

My mom and I have been actively selling the cookbooks so that we can pay off the cost of publishing them; the cost is around $1400. After we make enough to pay off the cost to publish them, the rest of the money made will go directly towards Ashley's medical care and future transplant. If you haven't ordered a cookbook, please do so now. We have lowered the cost of the cookbooks so we can sale more cookbooks. Right now, the cookbooks are $10.95 but after they arrive in July the price will more than likely go back to the original price of $12.00. If you look to the right of this blog there are links on the two different ways you can purchase your cookbook. Please take advantage of the lower price and order your cookbook today. Remember your purchase will help save Ashley's life.

We need to sell about 10 more cookbooks (oops, I mean 50 more cookbooks) to meet our goal of paying off the production costs. Please help us met our goal and order now.

Okay so I made you wait a couple years.  I promise I will try to get better at this.  Now to help  you catch up on what happened in 2018, 2019 and so far in 2020. Let's see...this might be a very short post at least for the years 2018 and 2019.   2018 In 2018, Brad graduated from the Univeristy of Alabama with a BS Degree in Economics and Philosphy in May. He is still dating his high school sweetheart, McKenzie, there is talk of marriage.  After graduation, Brad got a job with Reuters as part of their Graduate Leadership Program.  Then the division of Reuters that Brad worked for became Refinitiv. He lived in NYC for about six weeks for training and then lived in Chicago for about 9 months before they transferred him to Houston to work as a Customer Success Manager in Commodities and Energy. McKenzie also graduated with a BS in Pharmacy but continued with her graduate studies.  Ashley is a Junior in college and she is doing well academically and h...

It's been a while. Did you know...

that Ashley was in the hospital  after Thanksgiving and before Christmas?  She had a bleed. She has varices.  Just a little reminder that she is not healthy and has a life threatening liver disease. that we lost our beloved beautiful puppy, Sarge, on January 2.  It was sudden, shocking, and sad.  We think he had leukemia based on his symptoms.  Not sure if we will ever get another dog.  Sarge was one of a kind and a perfect fit for our laid back, drama free family. that Ashley made the Principal's Honor Roll her 1st Semester of high school while taking all honors courses.  She is beautiful and smart. that Ashley is still dancing for her high school dance team minus a solo this year. She loves being part of the team but really misses competing in her favorite style of dance, lyrical/contemporary. that after a couple years of not having a dance studio to call home.  We think we may have finally found just the place.  Maybe som...

On the Mend

Ashley's doing better and was able to attend dance company rehearsals Saturday and she was finally able to eat something for lunch on Saturday. She still doesn't have much of an appetite but she at least is on the mend and is no longer contagious. Me on the other hand. I have been very healthy these last few years; hardly sick at all. Yesterday, I came down with a very nasty stomach virus and I am frequently in discomfort. Other than a bout with intermittent stomach cramps and frequent trips to the bathroom, I feel fine. Hopefully this little stomach bug will go away very soon. And I pray that I don't pass it along to anyone else in the family especially Ashley. Cookbook Update : I just checked the UPS website and the cookbooks are on time, in Orlando, and should be delivered to our house tomorrow, June 30. I am so excited. We have 80 more cookbooks to sell, so if you haven't ordered yours yet please do so today. Please see information about ordering cookbooks at the ri...
