I'm more likely to send books to the "op shop" than to buy from them.
My shelves are full - plus.

I thought I had. Got an updated "categories" listing from them a few
days ago. But, I'm sticking with my current mix of cozy mysteries,
crime fiction (detective stories), historical fiction, history, and
cooking is what I'm sticking with.

I sometimes get recipes is some of my "cozy mysteries" which are/can be
intriguing. Those I will pound in to my Meal Monster software. But I've
also got on-line feeds from Taste of Home, New York Times, Cookpad (UK),
Woolworth's TASTE (Australia) and Copycat Recipes (Stephanie Manley)
I'm going to have to start a second "ECHOMAIL" base in Meal Master as
I am at 21,000 recipes that I have entered for use in the echo. Wow!
Here's one - since I know you like Chick Filly whereas I have stood on
more than enough lines when I was in Unc's Yacht Club. Bv)=
