RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I was born in Detroit, Michigan and moved to Miami, Florida in 1976. I moved to Franklin, NC at the beginning of 2005 and back to Detroit 12 years later. My "fun" interests include reading (science fiction mostly), movies and television (again, I love sci fi), cooking (and eating it, but need to go on a diet (LOL), collecting 60's music, and watching my children grow. My all time favorite cookbook is the Betty Crocker Home cookbook. I have a great Hungarian cookbook that has all the recipes that I remember from my childhood being prepared by my Grandparents and my Mother.
