about me

That baby in the picture...yep that's me some eon's ago...not even gonna tell you how many. I live in the Capital City of our State (not that I wouldn't move in a heart beat) with my wonderful husband who is presently extremely ill with several terminal illnesses and hanging in there as best he can. We just became Great, Great Grandparents in May (NO I'm not old enough for that, he is) with the birth of a beautiful baby girl...and we are busting buttons.

If you go to My Cookbooks...you will find one "From the Grey Cookbook" This is a collection of my Dear Late Mothers recipes...and in memory of all the wonderfully delicious meals she used to cook for us.



I Love to cook good food, but Italian is one of my specialties. Baking is my fun...pies, cookies, and making candy. Don't do cakes, nobody here eats them. But make a cheesecake and it disappears.

Gardening is a hobby, and love to run out and pick fresh vege's and herbs to add to my meals. Besides my dogs, cats, fish, and rather large free roaming Iguana, I have a really good collection of chickens, and the ladies present me with a steady supply of fresh eggs, and fertilizer for the garden. Food preservation and storage is a passion.

Sewing and needlework are how I make my spending $$$. With my stuff sold in local shops and ski resorts.

As you might be able to tell from my name I collect bears, ceramic and stuffed (Started with one on the Birth of my first grandchild) now have over 600 bears and no room in my house for another...not that they don't continue to find a spot in my humble home as everyone has to give me one no matter the occasion.
