Time was when Marie Cavanaugh spent hours in her South Dakota farmhouse each Christmas season making pecan rolls and homemade chocolates for holiday gifting. "It started when my aunt sent her pecan-rolls recipe," Mrs. Cavanaugh recalled. "I gave the recipe my own touch and started making the yummy specialties. Then I began dipping chocolates. Our friends and neighbors loved these treats, encouraging me to start a candy business. Finally, I decided it might be a good idea.'" Her husband George and children Carla, Lorraine, Calvin, Colene and Genise rallied, helping Mrs. Cavanaugh fill demands for her homemade sweets. ...In 1972, the family moved to Utah, leaving good friends and their beloved cattle ranch. "It was a difficult decision, especially for George," Mrs. Cavanaugh said. "He was excited about making our new venture, which we chose to call Mrs. Cavanaugh's Candies, a great success. We felt Utah was blessed with good chocolates and that we would enjoy - and could ...

Book Review – Roxy Rogers: Your Destiny is Calling by Emily Siskin-Troy
Roxy Rogers: Your Destiny is Calling is a children’s book by Emily Siskin-Troy. Roxy has been groomed since she was little to play baseball. She comes from a long line of famous baseball players, so it’s expected of her. However, her dream is to sing like Aretha Franklin. Will she ever be able to make her dream come true? The story is very cute and has great illustrations. I also love the mentions of baseball history and how it was tied into the story. The story also has a great lesson: never give up on your dreams. Just because something is expected for you, doesn’t mean it’s right for you. My daughter is a big baseball fan, so really enjoyed it. Overall, Roxy Rogers is a great story. It’s available on Amazon in both Kindle ($5.00) & paperback ($9.99 + shipping) formats. You can get more info about upcoming books from Mrs. Siskin-Troy by visiting her website. I received the above mentioned item for free to help facilitate my review. All opinions are 100% my own. This ...
