Sharon, just had time to catch up on posts this afternoon, chose to forego sitting in the rain watching the Titans play! Still hoping they will win today. My sympathies to and your friends in South Carolina, my sister and her family were safe, but I understand the effect and devastation of aflood from the Nashville 2010 flood . One of my friends received a considerable amount of damage. Her kitchen was already being remodeled, so all her cookbooks were packed up. You do not think that something like a cookbook would be missed, but those family recipes and favorite recipes you prepared for your family are important. Cannot recall if I emailed or mailed a letter to Betty Crocker explaining the devastation, but they sent me box of cookbooks! It was a pleasure to deliver one to my friend, and then take the rest of the cookbooks to one of the many churches that helped people in the area for many months after the flood. Included in the each cookbook was a letter informing the people that Betty Crocker donated the cookbooks (did not think a plug for Betty was inappropriate).
Interestingly, the lady that sent the cookbooks called me after the area she was living in had heavy rains that flooded their towns. She learned first hand the importance of my request for cookbooks earlier in the year.
Maybe TMI, but you and your friends will be in my prayers as they rebuild and restore their lives.
