Personal Notes:
Clella "Dutch" Brown, Leon Jr.'s wife, gave this recipe to Helen Brown Palmer in June, 1990. A family reunion was held in Indiana and many of Ralph Brown's grandkids camped at Pokagon State Park as part of the reunion. Helen and Hal Palmer came from California as did Brent and Janice Palmer with Eric and Matt. Mick and Lee Brown drove from Cincinnati and surprised us by bringing Barbara Brown (she lived in San Francisco).
