I'm Native American and live on a reserve.
I love any thing that has to do with food from recipe collecting to grocery shopping.
I'll try just about any food once.
Right now I work in a sports store so when I'm not busy I'm always here on the Zaar.I have a lot of cookbooks that I've collected over the years but I don't use them much anymore because I'd rather do recipes here!
