such a great supply of delicious recipes Love the farmers almanac
This is a great selection of recipes.There are several I want to make soon. I kept thinking when I was reading the beef tenderloin recipe, that it might be even better with a pork tenderloin.
This is one of the better selection of recipes, although the calories much be off the records on some of them. They still sound delicious. There is a greater selection of egg-less recipes. Thanks for that!
