"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This was Edith's Mother Laura Cora Dameron. This may have been handed down from her mother aslo. Date is unknown. I had to revise it as it stated. put in Ice Box and if snowing or below freezing put out side to let chill to icy. A Ice box was a big box that held big blocks of ice to keep food cool. It wasn't intended for getting things icy cold. Food stayed chilled for a couple days as long as big blocks of ice were added. This is the kind of Refergerator Laura Cora had on the farm in Huntsville, MO. SLM
