RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am a Canadian girl living in the US. My family and I moved to a very beautiful but very rural area of Pennsylvania from Ontario Canada. I have two very busy boys, a wonderful hubby, and three curious cats and a new Cairn Terrier named Bailey. We are enjoying living in the country, but I have to say I miss the variety of restaurants and things to do, we had in the city. I love to cook and garden and for the first time since we have been married I now have land for that big country garden (if I can keep the deer and rabbits out!). We bought a big old Greek Revival farmhouse so that there is loads of room for family and friends to visit, I look forward to offering country hospitality to all of them.
