A NEW FAMILY FAVORITE....
Paying a little more attention to health lately, I have become a total food label reader and avoid extra "junk" that seems to get slipped into our food.  My family loves ranch dressing, so on a quest to discover a good recipe to make my own, I stumbled across a blog called Gwen's Nest who just happened to have a great recipe for ranch dressing mix that I thought I would share.  I ordered the ingredients from azurestandard.com, or you could probably buy them in bulk at your local health food store.  Enjoy!

  1. Interesting to see properties that have been on the market for a very long time finally selling. A sure sign the market has turned a corner. Looking up the ranch dressing recipe right now!

  2. I want to thank you for kindly becoming a follower on my blog! We have recently purchased a 35 acre property in eastern Ontario, Canada. We hope to be moving in the spring. I've traveled through Washington many years ago, and it's beautiful country! If you ever find the time (ha!) to start a blog about your farm life, I'd be interested in reading it.

    Thanks also for posting the link to the ranch dressing mix. I'm going to try that, too!
