A to Z Recipes Newsletter

Good morning and welcome to your Sunday edition of A to Z Recipes Newsletter. I hope you and yours enjoy some local celebrations honoring our heroes on this Veteran's Day. However you do it, pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice: being away from family in dire conditions, and for some, to never see them again. I salute our veterans today and every day!

You may have noticed that your newsletters have been missing from your inbox the past week or so. That is because I have been sick. I am well on the mend and very excited about today's issue finally being posted.

Special thanks from me goes out to the following who came to the rescue and sent a donation to help cover the larger publishing expenses that were due in October: Amy A. in Gastonia, NC, Larry H. in Toronto, Canada, and an anonymous reader. I will not bug you again until April, when the other larger ones come due. If enough people sent a dollar or two on occasion, I would not have to bug anyone again.

The newest Monthly Theme topic is Winter Favorites. We'll be looking for recipes you especially enjoy preparing when the temperatures drop. Read more about it in the Monthly Theme section. You'll find the handy link to use for submitting your favorites. Please, don't wait for a theme topic... send your favorite recipes in anytime to the recipe submission email link. Thanks!

What a fabulous issue is on tap for you. If you participated in this theme topic, you should find some of your recipes posted here today. Otherwise, since I had so many (well over 200 recipes!), the remainder will greet you bright and early next Sunday morning. You can send a virtual hug to the following for their help in today's selection:
