This recipe is absolutely excellent!. I made it for my wife because she was feeling a little under the weather and she loved it! As a matter of fact, I'm making it again (9-14-08) today. Lastly I did not even need to add salt to it. If you like your food spicy/hot, I'd add a little crushed pepper to it. I Highly reccomend this recipe! - Will H

I have been a Central Illinois resident all my life.
My hobbies include fishing with my husband, reading, counted cross stitch, and of course, cooking (especially baking)!
I currently work in an office, behind a desk, pushing paper. My dream would be to open my own bakery.
Spending time in the kitchen is very relaxing to me, and it keeps me connected to my domestic side!
