Way too young to be grandmother of five, mom of three, and wife of one, all living together in our crooked old house. Former food columnist for small suburban papers, and mostly-retired caterer, I still love entertaining, gardening, writing, and of course, the internet. I am getting a little tired of making dinner, though.
