Personal Notes:
Funny note.... As I was writing out this recipe,the autocorrect was misbehaving. Instead of 4 handfuls of sugar, it wrote 4 Ghandi's.... Silly autocorrect. Lol. I also had to smile with this recipe of my grandma's. She really didn't use measuring utensils. She didn't need them.... She had her eyes and her hands to measure ingredients out.
