Who the Heck is Sheila "SgtB" Calnan??

I got so excited about finding a place to "bend an ear" at, I forgot to tell my readers, a little about me.

My name is Sheila. Have been cooking most of my life and just turned 67 yrs old a few weeks ago...so that's a long time.

I spent 8 years in the United States Army, serving in South Korea and in Saudi Arabia, during the first Gulf War. Before joining the Army, I owned a small bakery/café in Georgia....so I guess I hit both sides...cooking and baking.

I recently purchased a Food Saver Vacuum System. Totally love the thing. I liked mine so much, I bought my daughter one and a friend of mine one. I lost my husband/best friend back in 2012, so I have to make myself cook. I know how hard it is to cook for one - when you go from serving 1,000+ a meal, down to 2 (even though Jim ate like he was the Army), that's one of the reasons, I bought the sealer. I can cook a big batch of something and have other meals, for a later date.

Have a best friend named Cosmo.  He's a rescue mutt who has been with me for almost 9 years now.  He's a sweet boy.

Am a member of the VFW/VFWA and DAV.  Bartend part-time at my VFW Post, just to give me something to do.  Once a month a help a friend of mine (human this time :) )with her church's Feed the Hungry Program.

I'm the Mother of a wonderful daughter, who has the world's best husband - just for putting up with her - and 3 grandkids.  Alex is going to be 17 (UGH!!!) this year and 10 year old twin girls, Annie and Jenna.

Have never done a blog, so hoping some of you, will make suggestions (be kind though),  ask questions, that maybe I can talk to you about. Would like to meet some other bloggers and read what they have to say.

Hugs and sloppy nose kisses from me and the Cos.  PEACE!!
