As scams go, this is pretty darn modest.  Maybe she really will send you
recipes.  Who cares?  If it's a scam, you are out a dollar and a SASE.  So
what?

Gosh, when Spike says heartfelt, sincere things like that -- things
straight from his full heart, well, it just makes you wonder why women
are crazy about him, doesn't it?

Why do you think it's a "scam"?  I mean...how difficult is it to
print out a bunch of copies of a recipe and stick them in an
envelope.  I am quite certain if you sent her (or him) a dollar
and a SASE you would indeed get her (his) stuffing recipe in return.
For all we know..it could be the best stuffing ever.  At worst
it's "spam" but since the OP claims the money will go to feed
some cats I suppose it is at least on topic.  Don't be so cynical...
nothing wrong with a little capitalism :-)

Ok, maybe it is not a SCAM (I believe it is) but really, is this a place to
sell your wares? Isn't it a bit off topic?  He or she is pushing other stuff
too.  Wouldn't eBay be an appropriate place for trying to sell these things?
