Great Golly, Granola Jollies!

Christmas is always a time to add some healthy snack recipes to our diet. So come join us on Saturday 10 December at 12:30 PM for 2 hours of shakin' and bakin' with some hot herbal tea on the side. Bring a container to take your share home and bring two ingredients as follows: (call me to see what we still need at 278-2018)

Large bag of walnuts or almonds (unsalted)
Vanilla flavoring (the real deal)
Safflower oil (Ingles sells it)
Brown Sugar (1 box)
Sunflower seeds (out of the shells) 2-3 cups
Ground Flax (Sam's sells it, probably at Walmart, too) 2 cups
Craisins in the large bag
Raisins in the barrel

Remember we shall reap what we sew. Think about a sewing or needlework project you'd like to share for our February meeting and bring a friend with you. January is just too cold for us to meet, so we are skipping that month to meet and allowing y'all to lose all those extra holiday pounds before coming out in public--teehee!

RSVP if you're coming to make granola--it's way better than the stuff you buy!

Your Spartanburg Facilitator,
Dr. Linda B. Greer

We Have No Granola Today!

Our November meeting did not materialize because some of our regular members were out of town and we couldn't get our ingredients together, but we will try again on Dec. 10, Saturday, at 12:30-2:30 PM. Please contact me at drgreer@charter.net for the list of ingredients for choosing 2 to bring. Also, bring a medium small tin to take home your share of the granola. It's a time-honored recipe for getting your fiber in a most delightful way!

Don't forget! Any of your extra Christian Fiction or Non-Fiction Books as well as Bibles are being collected by your facilitator, Linda Greer, to mail out to our military guys and gals in Iraq and Afghanistan. Deadline to get them to me is Nov. 30. (See FB "Books for Heroes" for more info.)

I hope you remembered all our veterans on Veterans' Day last weekend. They have helped to make this country free and keep it that way. Hurrah for the Red, White, and Blue!
