Food for Thought - recipes from the relatives



I was cleaning out some old recipe books a couple years ago, planning to recyle some of them to a charity. Thank goodness my father looked through them because he discovered that one that was slated for donation was a 1950 cookbook compilation from the American Legion Auxiliary in Hardy, Nebraska, where much of our family resided for several decades. As I looked through it, not only did I find familiar names, but photographs of several family members who contributed recipes for the publication. I'm going to have to try this cake recipe some day! It sounds good!

    I would appreciate permission to post the burnt sugar cake recipe (we had a similar one when I was a youth) on my site, with a link to your site. Please send me a note at billsmith2003@gmail.com. THANKS!
