Personal Notes:
I (Sean) typed this verbatim per Mom's computer file of recipes she sent me! I feel like you can almost hear her speaking! Mom got this recipe from Trinity Cafe in Boerne that was owned by Harry and his wife, Renee. For those of you that made it to Colby's baptism, Trinity Cafe is where we sat outside and enjoyed their great food, fellowship, and view of the creek!
