Swingin’
I totally stole this off of Sheaffer’s blog. Look at my big boy swinging on a big swing by himself for the first time! When did he get so big? Smith William Shull, I love you so much!

This recipe comes from the cookbook I gave away last week, Flavors of Fall. I’ve been making it for years because it’s simple, comforting and warms you up inside. Served with a bagged Caesar salad, it’s dinner. Shopping List 1 lb. ground…
