RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in SM which is conveniently located about halfway between LA and SF in sunny CA. My husband, Thor, of 20 years is half Norwegian and half French ( I'm not sure what the other half is ). We have a great time together. We have no human children together instead we have three cats.
I have way too many interests for my own good. Before I became horribly addicted to this website I used to enjoy gardening (veggies & flowers), knitting, reading books, taking photographs, trying to play the piano and listening to music. Oh, and movies, movies, movies.
I love cats, Studebakers, sci-fi, Star Trek, Stargate, word games, science.
