Hello, Linda - I would love to see some of your work. I hope you'll find the time to post a recipe or two and perhaps share some of your knowledge with us. Best regards, Amos Miller

Hi Linda,

Thanks for your nice note. I'm glad you think the Bear Sign Shortbread Bars might be a recipe you can adapt, customize, and have fun with! I love your raspberry wine idea! Enjoy, friend...

How nice to speak w/ someone who has been to and loves Alaska! Glad you got to see The Great Land- and I'm excited for your next trip up as well. Have a BLAST!

I lived and worked up north for 13 years. Have been back in Illinois now for a couple years- it's nice to be near family and ailing/aging parents and not so far off, for a change. But I do miss the North a lot. I hope to one day go back- if not to live- then at least for vacations.

Have a wonderful holiday season, Linda! smiles- Kevin
