[Sca-cooks] Maryland Stuffed Ham

[Olwen the Odd]

Gee Master A.  I used to live in Arnold.  Worked at the Community College
there for 9 years.  Still go play with friends there.  Next time you come
down I can take you to a lovely little stretch by the library that has a
delightful display of cattails!
