RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in a small town in east central Illinois near the Indiana border. I work in OP Registration at our local hospital. My favorite cookbook consists of all the BEST recipes I have acquired over the years from all of those people who knew how to cook. My true passion is for yeast breads and cooking for my loved ones and friends gives me great pleasure. My pet peeve is people who dont use clean standards when cooking.
