Lincoln Daily News
welcomes letters of appreciation, information and
opinion on matters pertaining to the community.
Controversial issues:
As a
community we need to be able to talk openly about
matters that affect the quality of our lives. The
most effective and least offensive manner to get
your point across is to stick to the issue
and refrain from commenting on another person's
opinion. Letters that deviate from focusing on the
issue may be rejected or edited and marked as such.

Dear Editor: My daughter, Julie (age 7), and I entered the Jif
Most Creative Peanut Butter Sandwich Contest this past fall. She is
now one of the 10 online finalists. We live in Channahon, Ill.,
which is about 40 miles southwest of Chicago. We had a wonderful
time together coming up with a recipe to submit.
We were ecstatic when we were notified that our "Texas Roll 'Em
Up" sandwich would be put online for the public to vote for. We ask
that your readers visit www.jif.com, check out the sandwiches, and
we hope that our sandwich would be the one they vote for. The "Texas
Roll 'Em Up" has a Southwest flavor; all recipes are online; we hope
that you try one. We sincerely appreciate every vote the "Texas Roll
'Em Up" receives. Voting is from Jan. 12 to Feb.6, 2007.

I also would like to encourage parents with children age 6-12 to
enter this contest next year.
Julie and I had a really terrific time in the kitchen creating a
recipe. It has become a life experience memory that we will forever
cherish. And the grand prize winner will receive a $25,000 college
scholarship fund.
I hope you vote for us this year, and next year I hope to vote
for your child's sandwich.
Thank you.
Terry and Julie Dosher
Channahon
