This recipe has been handed down from many generations of Lynden Christian alumni. My grandmother, Leah (Van Weerdhuizen) Vander Ploeg, attended Lynden Christian School from 1911-1915; my mother, Alice (Vander Ploeg) Hoekema, graduated from Lynden Christian's 8th grade in 1933; and I (Cheryl Hoekema Roorda) graduated from Lynden Christian High School in 1964.
