<p>My husband and I have been together for over 10 years, married for 5. My husband is in school for his PhD in Math, and I have my Master's in Library Science. We have a 1 year old son.<br /> <br />I love cookbooks, and have a ton of vintage ones dating as far back as the 1920's. When DH's grandmother passed away, I inherited all of her cookbooks and recipes, and for Christmas we created a family cookbook using scans of her recipe cards. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><a href=http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/wkFsIi2/> <br /><br /></a></p>
