Hi Nancy!
For the stainless steel pan, soaking a fabric softener sheet in the
pan over night should help that pan clean up much easier.

This is for Grace who asked for an appetizer to spread on crackers or
bread in the March 10th newsletter. I serve this a lot and always get
raves.....especially from the men. They seem to love it!! I have
substituted pastrami for the corned beef and it works fine. Small squares
of rye bread would be my preference, but crackers are good too.
Jan in Texas
Ruben Appetizers
2 packages of Buddig corned beef, chopped in tiny pieces (any brand that
comes in the little packages that are thinly sliced)
14 oz. sauerkraut, rinsed, squeezed dry and chopped
1 Cup mayonnaise
1 Cup Swiss cheese
Mix together and bake 350 for 25 minutes. Serve with crackers or small
slices of rye bread.

Thank you for your kind thoughts. The best way to increase traffic to the
site is to share with your friends recipes you have tried and liked and
just below the recipe include the URL of the site. Word of mouth is one of
the best ways to increase the numbers to a site.
Another way to increase numbers is to one of your favorite recipes you
enjoy you have used from the newsletter and share them with your friends
on other recipe message boards. Include source at the bottom of the
message along with the URL (http address) of the newsletter the recipe was
from. Some boards do not allow this but if it is the source and you post
only one recipe it should be acceptable. More than that would be
considered inappropriate.
I feel this is only a temporary slump and with positive thinking it will
improve very soon. I love everyone in this newsletter family for allowing
me the opportunity to post this newsletter each day.

Nancy, As well as everyone else who yells, "Thank
you for the newsletter," I enjoy reading it everyday, and have used many
recipes from it! I have a request, late 70's early 80's I made a ice
cream sandwiches for my family. Many, yes many years later they are
requesting it and guess what, I can't find the recipe! There is only three
items in it, and this is all I can remember graham crackers and can
frosting. After mixing then you freeze. I've tried cool whip, cream cheese
and cannot come up with the correct recipe. Thank you ahead of time, any
help would be greatly appreciated!

To Sylvia in FL
If her skillet is cast iron, put it in a self-cleaning oven. Clean over
and skillet at the same time. When it is cool, wash to get residue off. It
will have to be re-seasoned. I go to flea markets and garage sales,
looking for cast iron. It is usually very grubby and this is how I clean
mine.

Hello Nancy and furbabies from me and my 3
furbabies (bosses)
In the March 10 newsletter, Linda wanted a TNT chocolate pound cake
recipe. This one was my Mom's. She died in 1963 so it is safe to say it
has been around a while. I think it is still the most popular recipe
around. I have cooked it in tube pans and round pans, so it should work
fine for a wedding cake.
Mom's Pound Cake
3 cups sugar
3 sticks butter (good margarine works fine)
5 large eggs
3 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup evaporated milk
2 tsp vanilla
If making chocolate, add 5 tbspn cocoa to the flour
Cream sugar and butter for about 5 minutes to give the sugar a chance to
start to dissolve. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each. Sift
together flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa if making chocolate.
Add 1/3 of flour, 1/2 of milk, mix well, add another 1/3 of flour, 1/2 of
milk and mix well again. Add rest of flour. Mix well and add vanilla. Pour
into well greased and floured 10" tube pan. I put into a cold oven and
bake at 325 for1-1/2 hours. It also works fine to put into a preheated
oven.
There is not much you can do to mess this cake up except open the oven
door during the last 15-20 minutes of baking. It will seriously fall if
you do. That's not terrible if you are making chocolate. It will be just
like brownies. My husband has been know to do something to make it fall,
get out a gallon of milk, sit down at the table and eat and drink until he
is almost sick.
Hope this works for you Linda.
Jean in NC
For Kelli:
Try mixing your chopped fruit with a little of the flour in a separate
bowl, then mix into the rest of your ingredients.
For Marge in OH:
Have you tried putting a table spoon of baking soda and water in your pan
and boiling gently for a few minutes?
For Grace:
Zesty Cheese Spread
1 pkg. (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup salad dressing
1/3 cup chopped green pepper
1/4 cup chopped pimiento
2 tbsp chopped onion
Combine cream cheese and salad dressing; mix until well blended. Add
chopped vegetables; mix well.
Makes 1-3/4 cups.
Mock Pate
1 pkg. (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1 roll (8 oz) liver sausage
1 tbsp chopped onion
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Dash of salt and pepper
Combine cream cheese and liver sausage; mixing until well blended. Add
remaining ingredients; mix well.
Makes 2 cups. This is delicious!
Asparagus Appetizer
1 can (16 oz) asparagus or artichoke hearts, drained and finely chopped
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Beat together and pour into an 8 or 9" pie plate. Bake at 350 degrees 25
minutes. Serve with assorted crackers.

To Grace who asked for an easy appetizer
before dinner: if you can get Laughing Cow cheese in your area, it
would be ideal for a dinner party. You can stuff it in celery as it
spreads like cream cheese, and sprinkle some paprika or dried parsley over
it for eye appeal. It also comes in a light variety which is much tastier
than other light cheeses. It comes in a round container and can also be
spread on crackers.

In reference to the "receipt vs. recipe"
discussion about the
copyrighted title of the book, "Charleston Receipts", this is found
at the beginning of the book:
Receipt vs. Recipe
Throughout this book, as you will see,
We never mention recipe,-
The reason being that we felt,
(Though well aware of how it is spelt!),
That it is modern and not meet
To use in place of old receipt
To designate time-honored dishes
According to ancestral wishes.

This is great idea. Thank you so much for the suggestion.
Hi Nancy,
This response is for Barb in Delaware that needs ideas for baby shower
favors.
I gave a baby shower last fall for my sister-in-law and gave away rubber
duckie keychains as the favors. I purchased them from Oriental Trading
Company. Everyone loved them! I hot glued a tiny, pink satin bow on top of
duckie's head to make them a bit more special. Since you are expecting a
grandson, you could add a blue bow to the duckie's neck for a bow tie.
They looked so cute sitting on the table at the shower!
I also have an idea for a punch recipe that is
just adorable. I found this recipe on the new Group Recipes website. I am
including the URL link so that you can see the photo of the serving idea
that the group member supplied. She floated rubber duckies on top and it
is sooooo cute! This would also tie into the favors if you wanted to use
them.
http://www.grouprecipes.com/.
I hope this helps a bit, Barb. Enjoy the shower and congratulations on
your 1st grandchild!
Gia
Baby Blue Punch
1 (0.13 ounce) package blue, berry flavored unsweetened drink mix
1 (2 liter) bottle lemon-lime flavored carbonated beverage
1 (64 fluid ounce) bottle white cranberry juice
8 scoops vanilla ice cream
1 cup white sugar, or to taste
In a large punch bowl, stir together the drink mix, lemon-lime soda, and
white cranberry juice. Taste, and stir in sugar to your liking. (I like to
add the whole cup.) Float scoops of ice cream on the top. The ice cream
melts somewhat and turns the punch a beautiful baby blue color with frothy
white clouds floating on the top.

PS. Does anyone have a recipe for cooking corn beef in a slow cooker
Hi Nancy and furry pets,
Just wanted to say thanks for all the hard work you do to keep this site
going, I really enjoy it. In fact it is the high light of my day, my
husband goes to work and I go to Nancy's place. I don't post or haven't
yet but if I had a recipe book with all the recipes I have copied out of
your site, it would probably be six feet tall. I LOVE the simple recipes
and the household hints, Keep up the good work, We all love you here is
Florida.
Bobbi in Central Florida,(69)
To Andee in LA -
Even though I live in rural Kansas City and have for 15 years - my heart
is still in LA and would move back there in a heartbeat. I envy you - I
loved it there. Thanks so much for the info about contacting Kellogg -
didn't even think to do that. Thank you much.
To Mary in Oregon -
Didn't get to send in my Colcannon recipe yesterday - was a long day and
late night - but your recipe is identical to mine - got it out of the
Kansas City Star years ago and St. Pat's Day would NOT be the same without
it.
It makes a large quantity - we are only 2 people - but it reheats well and
we always finish it off. It's wonderful. What I do differently than you do
is - I put a liberal amount of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray over
the top and it is yummo! We use that spray daily - no calories, no carbs -
how can you go wrong.
Also, this Colcannon recipe can be made ahead and warmed in the micro
without any ill effects -makes it easier on the Big Day!
Rosemarie from rural Kansas City
PS -- And thank you to Nancy for getting us all together like this. Don't
get to read until just before bed - but it is my bedtime read.

This is another recipe for peanut butter fudge
with a chocolate layer. There have been several requests for this type of
fudge over the past few months. I have not yet tried it, but I think you
could use other combinations of chips to make other layered fudge, such as
vanilla chips and cinnamon chips.
Robbie Bowling Green, In
Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge
1cup peanut butter morsels
1cup semisweet chocolate morsels
2-1/4 cups sugar
1 (7 ounce) jar marshmallow cream
3/4 cup evaporated milk
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Place peanut butter morsels in one bowl, and chocolate ones in another
bowl, and set aside. Butter an 8" square baking pan and set aside. Combine
sugar, marshmallow cream, evaporated milk, and butter in a heavy saucepan.
Bring to a boil over medium heat; stirring constantly, continue cooking
and stirring for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla. Quickly
stir half of the hot mixture into the peanut butter morsels until they are
completely melted, and pour into the prepared 8" square pan, smoothing out
the top.
Stir the remaining mixture into the chocolate morsels, and stir until
completely melted. Pour this mixture over the peanut butter fudge layer,
spreading evenly. Cool fudge completely before cutting into 1" squares.
I have read that onions can be kept best if
separated from each other. That can be accomplished by putting them in the
leg of old pantyhose & tying a knot between each. You can hang them up &
just cut off one as needed.
Regarding the Rocky Road Brownies ~ My
mother always put the marshmallows on top but covered them with a cooked
fudge like frosting like you put on Texas sheet cake. They were
scrumptious. This is one of my favorite salads...
Cauliflower Pea Salad
1 med head cauliflower
16 oz bag frozen small peas
8 oz shredded cheddar ( I use the sharp)
1 pkg Good Seasons Italian dressing (dry)
about 2 cups Miracle Whip
Cut washed and dried cauliflower in small bite size pieces. Add frozen
peas, breaking up any clumps, cheddar, & dry salad dressing mix. Stir
gently until well mived. Put in glass or stainless steel straight sided
bowl. Frost top with Miracle Whip so it`s covered and sealed to edges of
bowl about 1/4 in thick. Cover with plastic wrap. Chill in fridge
overnight. Mix all together the next day. You can sprinkle a bit of
sugar on the dressing to your taste or perhaps add crumbled bacon, but I
like it just as is. Anne from Fl
Hi Nancy, Glory from Tucson's stated that "she
didn't know Potato Pancakes originated in Germany" .
Potato recipes, especially potato pancakes, can be found in some variation
.. some grated, shredded, different spices or other, throughout almost all
cuisines today. Even in India, potatoes show up in turnover-like samosas.
Jewish latkes, a traditional food of Hanukkah but also served year-round,
originate from Central-Europe, and the Irish (as well as Swedish) make
their own form of potato pancakes. I'm not sure where it originated from
but somewhere in Europe I believe. Have a great weekend everybody!

The Tray Game with a TWIST ~ Everyone knows how to play the tray game of
course but this one has a little twist to it. Have a tray with various
baby items on it and walk around with it or pass it around to each guest
(prefer hostess hold it), give all guests paper to write down everything
they remember but not about the items on the tray? Here's the twist. Just
before asking the guests to begin making their lists, ask the Mother-ti-Be
to step into your kitchen (or another room) for a moment as if you wanted
to talk to her. Then, after making her comfortable, go back and tell you
guests they need to answer your questions on
The Mom-to-Be and her attire for the day NOT on anything that was on the
tray You'll hear a lot of moans but the laughter will soon follow as you
ask such questions as.
What is the main color that she is wearing?
Is she wearing sandals?
Is she wearing hose?
Long sleeves or short sleeves?
How is her hair done?
Any barrettes, clips, or ribbons in her hair?
Is she wearing jewelry?
List all the jewelry she is wearing.
Did she bring a handbag?
Describe it.
When is her baby due?
What names has she chosen for her newborn?
(You can add as many as you like)
The prize is all the gifts from the tray game.
I'm always trying new things for favors. At the last shower I purchased
little 7-in plastic baby bottles, filled them with M&Ms and had Regina's
Baby Shower and the date printed up on special little cards which I hole
punched and tied around the top of each bottle.
Another favor I hve used was little pink and blue bay blocks which were
hollow in the middle. I filled each one with tiny little confetti like
colored safety pins and assorted candies.
PS I always insist that the honoree takes the centerpiece home with her to
enjoy. Once is was a beautiful ceramin stork and another time a silk
floral arrangement.
Hope all these ideas will help.
This is for Grace from Susana in Louisiana
Whenever ya’ll need a great spread for a gathering or just a good snack
for the family, I hope you’ll try this. Everybody that’s tried it have
really enjoyed it and many times the recipe has been copied and given to
others. I found it in one of my magazines several years ago and it’s still
a favorite. Never any left. That's a good sign.
-Suz
Pepper Jack-Artichoke Spread
2(14-oz)cans quartered artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1-cup mayonnaise
Pepper Jack cheese (2 1/2-cup freshly shredded)
1/4-cup Italian Style bread crumbs
Snack crackers
Heat oven to400°. Mix artichokes, mayo, and 2-cups of cheese. Spread
mixture in ungreased 13X9-in glass dish. Mix remaining 1/2-cup cheese and
the bread crumbs. Sprinkle over the artichoke mixture. Bake 10-12 minutes
or until thoroughly heated. Spread on snack crackers of your choice. ( I
serve it hot with a knife available for the guests to spread their own
crackers)
This is a great little recipe that almost anyone
could tweak in some little way to make it their own - although - the
instructions here results in a delicious main course for family or
friends. I hope someone uses it and enjoys it.

Hi Nancy and all. In response to Rosemarie in
Rural Kansas City. I went to the Keebler web site and checked their
product line and it does not include chocolate crumbs. Looks like they
have discontinued the product. I checked some other web sites to see if
any of them carried a similar line but could not find anything.
Donna from KS Lawrence
Nancy, hope you and the furbabies are doing well
this evening. We have chances of some storms this weekend, so be on the
lookout in Amarillo!
For Mr. Myron Drinkwater, Thanks for sending the Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake
recipe. Sounds delicious.
For Sandi Ont-thanks for your recipe for the pumpkin cheesecake. It is
exactly like the one Mr. Myron Drinkwater sent me.
Kelli was wondering how to keep the dates and raisins from becoming so
gummy. Try tossing them in some of the flour designated for your
recipe-don't use extra-I've heard that messes up the recipe. This should
help with the gumminess. I know this is a solution to keep nuts, raisins,
etc. from sinking to the bottom of cakes. Hope this works for your
daughter. Her recipe sounds interesting-care to share?

To get anything burned out. Pour baking soda all over the bottom of pan
add water to come up to about 1/2 height of pan, set on burner on medium
heat bring to a boil turn heat off put a lid or put foil tightly on top.
Let sit over night then scrub well next day. This has always worked for
me.
Judy Montana
First of all, I would like to thank the member who
sent in the recipe for the Corned Beef in foil. I tried it, cooking it on
Thursday, slicing and serving on Friday. My husband like it much better
than the way I used to make it in the slow cooker. I will be serving it on
St. Paddy's day when we have company over!
Also, for Sylvia in FL regarding her iron skillet. To renew an iron
skillet, the easiest way is to put it in an oven and turn the
self-cleaning oven on. I did this w/ an iron skillet w/ all kinds of crud
on it. Underneath the crud was some rust. The self-cleaning oven got the
crud off, I wiped most of the ashes off, and used a steel wool on some of
the rust. Then, I went about the process of re-seasoning it. I used lard,
coating the skillet with a thin coating of lard; putting it in the oven at
about 200 degrees for about an hour. Then, I cooked high fat foods it in,
wiping the fat over the entire pan while still hot. I must say, it did
take about a month to reason, but I have a very nice looking iron skillet.
Better than throwing away--I think many of the newer skillets are not made
in the USA anymore, or you may pay a fortune for one made in the USA.!
Tina in GA
In regards to the woman who burned her iron
skillet and wanted to know if it could be restored, yes it can be. This
website is very helpful on how to keep and restore your iron skillet.

Hi Nancy, I have a special request for anyone
living in the Hill Country of Texas. I've got a real urge to see the
bluebonnets of Texas this year, and I want to be sure to be there when
they're in bloom because it's a fairly long trip from Indiana. One year we
went in mid-April and they were so beautiful, but I imagine there is a
variation from year to year as to when they bloom. I could go on the web
and check but I really trust the newsletter folks to be accurate. :)
Thanks for the help! Doris, S. Indiana

RE: Crockpot Cajun Pecans
I made these pecans yesterday afternoon and give them two thumbs up. I
forgot to turn the temp to low after 15 minutes and left them on high
but with the lid off the crockpot, I'm not sure they would have been
roasted enough on low. I also doubled the amount of cayenne pepper since
we like spicy foods. ~~Tona
Crockpot Cajun Pecans
1 lb. pecan halves
4 tbs butter, melted
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Combine all in a crockpot. Cover and cook on high for 15 minutes. Take
cover off and turn on low, for two hours. Transfer to a baking sheet and
let cool. Pack in gift jars for holiday giving.
Hi Grace from the March 10 newsletter, For ease,
you can't beat buying a jar of either olive tapenade or roasted red pepper
tapenade to spread on
crackers or bread. And there are always the old standbys of softened cream
cheese spread on bread then topped with hot or mild red pepper
jelly, peanut butter or blue cheese-stuffed celery, pate, or flavored
cream cheese with fruit to garnish. Good luck. Thanks to Nancy again
for this wonderful newsletter.

Hi Nancy,
I am replying to Sally in Pa. from Sat., March 10th newsletter. She was
requesting the recipe for a Lady Baltimore Cake. I know my sister has one,
but she is away right now, so I can't ask her, but I looked it up at
Allrecipes.com and they have one listed, along with the Lady Baltimore
frosting. If this is not what Sally is looking for, have her let me know,
through this newsletter and when my sister gets back, I'll see if she
still has hers. I would be glad to post it for her. Thanks for all you do,
I too, enjoy this newsletter and look forward to reading and sharing with
all those great cooks and bakers in "Nancyland". Thanks again.
