I imagine more people will be buying those again since KFC announced they no longer use partially hydrogenated fats for frying. What portion do you usually choose from the ...read more

    This is for people who are searching for something in their life and they are unsure of what it is.

The Old Testament is filled with marvelous stories of searchers. Abraham and Sarah left their home to ...read more
