I just wanted to send out a huge thanks to a LOT of people:
First and foremost... the ladies that attended the crop and made the event a wonderful SUCCESS!!!
I'd also like to thank all the local and national contributors that allowed us to have great goodie bags, fun prizes and profitable raffles & silent auction!
And, I personally, want to thank those that helped me pull this off. I did not have a "committee" or anything formal, so everyone's help is so appreciated. This includes Brigitte Herron & Jennifer Lopez, and also my family - my mom, my two sisters, and even my brother-in-law and nephews (P.S. - my husband's pretty awesome too but he had to work all weekend).
We raised a total of $1360, which is just plain AWESOME!!!!
THANKS!!!

Recipe from Crop
The wives of the Northwestern High School football coaches did an amazing job with our salad lunch at the crop. There were some recipe requests that followed. This one was my particular favorite so I thought I'd share with everyone.
