Personal Notes:
This recipe was obtained from Uncle Bruce in 1985. Mom (Jeane) would make it every year in the fall when we lived in Renton. She would deliver it to ward families for a Christmas present. One year, the neighbor boy had beads in his pocket that fell into the pudding when he bent over to mix the pudding. So we spent time trying to retrieve the beads. The large quantity in this recipe is mostly due to that fact that she ran a boarding house and had to feed many mouths.
