Living in the north, south, east and west of these United States, and collecting many recipes along the way, I have a love of trying all kinds of dishes from all over the United States and the world. Originally a member of RecipeZaar, I'm not quite as active as I used to be in the online recipe sharing world, but I do enjoy perusing (and actually trying) many recipes from this site and many others. I also have a nice collection of recipe books.
