I had a dehydrator for many years and quit using it so gave it to my son...He does use it so I guess I will just have to request one for Christmas this year :)<br />My DH would like the fruit for snacks too. I just bought a box of dried fruit at Walgreens today to ship to daughter that is now living in Chicago..she loves it there but not for me.nancy hugginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16048620969205596927noreply@blogger.com
