Notes: I found this recipe on the back of a thank you card written circa 1983/1984. This was back before the internet and Google made it possible to find a recipe for just about anything you could want. When Sandy couldn't find the recipe she wanted, she made one up, and this is what she created. I did not correct/edit/change this recipe in anyway. It is just as it was written on the back of the card.
