The proud wife of one of those legendary Iwo Jima Marines, I am 75 years old, mother of four wonderful children, grandmother of seven perfect grandchildren, grandmother of one "bonus" step-grandson (he is perfect, too)a cancer survivor, a quilter and a collector of cookbooks. My cookbook collection is stabilized at about 350, for I have learned to give an undesirable one to Good Will every time I acquire a new one.
