My sister did not allow smoking in her house. my mother would smoke in the guest bathroom then swear to my sister she didnt.

Sounds a lot like Shepherd's Pie. All the ingredients in the stew covered in mashed spuds and baked in the oven.

@majorcatfish Keeper of the Privy Seal... sounds about right.

we may be distantly related then, as i am part Scots and English. one of my relatives traced us back to the 1600s. no claim to royalty anywhere. Mom's side. Dad's side is Italian.
