Notes: Dick and Bessie Spray were very close to mom and dad. When WWII broke out, the four of them (and a bunch of kids) moved to Detroit together and dad and Dick worked in a plant that made tank engines. After the war, they all went back to Nebraska. Bessie always seemed like an Aunt to us kids.
Some of the spellings are a challenge here. The "soup macaroni" was hard to make out but shouldn't make much difference. Plus, most of mom's recipes reference "boxes" of ingredients or "packages". I assume a box of macaroni is probably a pound, but you'll have to experiment to be sure.
