PARIS, TX 2012 CHRISTMAS

Happy New Year 2013. I can't believe it. But am so grateful and send blessings to you and yours.

 

Getting back to the holidays. Had the fun pleasure of an invite to Paris, Tx. As a city girl you forget the peacefulness of the country, the fresh air, and the country hospitality.

 

That brings me to the delicious meal prepared.

2 Frozen deep dish pie shells - thawed

6 white corn tortillas
