When she saw the beautiful dessert made by Bonnie Cameron while a DSF cooking team was cooking at Ronald McDonald House, she had to get the recipe. Her response after Bonnie shared the secret to her lovely churro cupcakes: “Thank you so much for the recipe. I’ll enjoy making it with my granddaughter. Also, thanks to you and all the ladies for taking time out of your busy day to make lunch for everyone. We do greatly appreciate it. I pray you will all have a very blessed day because you have certainly blessed our day.”

I wanted to personally thank you for not only the $4000 check but for all the other things you all do for TFP. DJF has become an important partner to us. Thank you!

Juliette Fowler Valentines

Posted on January 15, 2021January 15, 2021 by dallasjuniorforum_7gmn6p

Hello,

I hope you are up for a service project that will be heartfelt. ❤ I want to give Valentine bags to our senior friends at Fowler, and I need your help.

On my porch are bags with blank index cards. Take one or two or a few. Decorate the cards with a heartfelt note for a Juliette Fowler resident.

Let them know that you care by sharing words of encouragement. Decorate the cards with stickers, colorful borders or your original artwork.

Please return the cards to my porch by February 10. If you want, it would be sweet if you could include a small trinket and candies or other treats with each card.

My goal is 100 cards of loving words. The treats are optional.

Fondly, Marla
