Personal Notes:
This was a recipe my father (Reedus) got from a friend and he and my mother (Helen) made a batch. I don't think they ever made another batch after this one. I do remember having these jars around for a while so maybe they lasted a long time. HAHA
I think you make things like this when as Maw-Maw would say...So poor didn't have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of.
