RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in Saskatoon, Sask. Canada. I'm retired, living alone and loving it. I'm a cross-stitch addict and spend hours every day stitching; I love to cook and try new recipes. I have two long shelves full of recipe books that I have to admit I rarely look at as I have a foot long recipe box with all my favorites in it.
