Hi Shawn,
RH> sensitive to changes. Other times I'll keep the recipe handy aas a

SH> This is pretty much what I do. But don't tell Andrea. :)
I won't, probably good chance we'll never meet--unless we do the drive
up to Nova Scotia with the camper some time.

When she first got married, our older daughter called me quite often to
get recipies so I'd dictate, with tweaks, to her. Now I'll take a
picture, text it to her but note if there's anything I do different from
how it's printed. (I think some of the calls were more just to talk;
she'd moved to an area where the only one she initally knew was her
husband.)
