Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
It is so hard to include salt in these recipes. Mom was on a salt-free diet for years. We never salted anything & I have found myself not even writing down the salt ingredient in recipes...

This makes for a great gift - who doesn't like lemons and maraschino cherries!
