Zucchini cake


Thanks to Brad's parents and my parents for donating their zucchini so that my kids could have chocolate zucchini cake. I didn't know it was possible to kill a zucchini plant, but we managed to lose all of ours this year.

Pioneers

Today we celebrate when Brigham Young, feeling under the weather, looked out of the back of his wagon and proclaimed "This is the Place, drive on". I have participated in a number of Pioneer Day related celebrations during my lifetime, but I never can forget being at the unveiling of a placque that has the name of my ancester- the FIRST of the pioneer party that entered the Salt Lake Valley a few days before the rest of the company. It was my sweet grandmother and I who attended the ceremony, and even though I was about 12 years old, I understood and I felt great amounts of gratitude for that man and all others who were coming to Zion. I am certainly blessed to be a part of a great heritage.
