Only the Thespian Can Do This One
often she'd stay the weekend. I'd give her these turnovers. She'd reject them at first by saying" yuk, you eat pig ears"! but one day she took one and ate it. She request them every easter as part of our easter party. We've been married for twenty three years now, and these turnovers are what bought us together. When we got our thang together we started dating more often, one night she told me she was pregnant, two days later I bought her a ring. I love this woman and just wanted to share this story with you.
