I live near a small town in north central South Dakota. Ispend much of my time helping my husband with his construction/ranch/used equipment sales business.
When I’m not stuck in our home office the kitchen is where you will find me.
I am a grandmother to 5 of the sweetest little people, 3 boys & 2 girls. I love them dearly and they will be the recipients of many of the cookie recipes I will be trying from Recipe Zarr.
