<p>I am currently retired and trying to salvage our <br />family heirloom recipes that my mother left 40 years ago hand written on now fading recipe cards. <br /><br />I would like to share some of these recipes with the general public. Of course they reflect the old high fat 'un-healthy style of cooking done fruequently in those days. So, if you see something you like, feel free to try to modify it to a more healthy modern equivalent if you don't think it will hurt anything. I see it this way: recipes are guidelines, not commandments.</p>
