Robert's surprise meatball & spaghetti sauce recipe! (🦌)
It was the first time I've ever had venison, surprisingly delicious. Poor Bambi! He was certainly a character! 💕

Robert taught my oldest daughter, Kara how to aim when she was 10 years old. And let me tell you something, she is 22 now and dead on her target. If he was around when my dad would walk in the woods with dogs when I was growing up he would wait with me so I wouldn’t alone, and every time a bear walk across the road. And he couldn’t believe it. He said every time he was around me he would see a bear! His reaction was so funny! Aryne and Robert had such a special love, the kind you don’t come across much anymore. I’m so sorry Aryne for your loss. Big hugs!
