"A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside; "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."--Jean Antheleme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste

Personal Notes:
This recipe was mine and I still have the cookbook that it came from. Made it several times..very good after an Asian type dinner. I would substitute grated fresh ginger for the ground, and add it with the wet ingredients.But that's just me:) I know this was made when Lucia and I lived in Willowbrook and it is handwritten and mimeographed on construction paper. Times were tough!
