I've been a fan of recipezaar for awhile now, but just recently became a member. I love to cook and try new recipes, and fortunately for me, my husband will try anything.
I grew up and currently reside in Utah. It's a great place to live if you like outdoor activities like us. We love to camp in the summer and ski in the winter. If you haven't been here, you should visit soon.
