I have recently become interested in OAMC cooking & this site has a multitude of recipes so I decided to join.
I used to work & had no life other than that. Now I spend lots of time with my g-kids & I'm much happier! I create greeting cards for family, friends & gifts. I am addicted to The Sims 2 & 3 PC video game. In this game you are basically God. You create Sims (people) & everything they use in their "lives" (its a game). All my grandchildren love to play Sims & that's why there is a version of Sims1-2 or 3 is on 3 of our computers!!
