I'm retired, live in SW Florida and love to cook. I have a large cookbook collection that I enjoy looking thru for ideas. Every time I start cooking something, our 2 shiitzu puppies come running, waiting for me to drop something. For some reason they especially love lettuce, of all things (vegetarian dogs?). I do a lot of recipes in the crockpot so I'm always looking for new ones to add.
