I like the B-section of the paper for the recipes and the antique page. My husband, being an auctioneer, likes to read all the auction sales.

We always got the paper and enjoyed living in the Lancaster area. Our children, Mark, Dale, and Diane are all married and live in the area and we have five grandchil dren. One of my hobbies is collect ing recipes and entering recipe contests, entering county fairs with baked goods, canned goods, jellies, and fresh garden produce. I also enjoy garden ing, doing different kinds of needlework, and knotting quilts at my church.
