Welcome to new member Renee

[Guest guest]

Hi Renee and welcome to the group. Thank you for submitting the questionnaire

which I include below. We think you will find a lot of recipes to your liking,

including many tofu recipes. There are two ways of searching for messages: one

is to search the message archive and the other one is to check through the

directories in the FILES. If you need any help navigating the website we'll be

pleased to give advice.

 

Have fun! Piers (co-owner with Pat)
