Thank goodness I created that family recipe book for David and Cathy when they got married in 1982. [That was my motivation for always making a soft copy of a recipe someone asked for — never again would I do it on paper.] When I went to make this for July 4, though, I found my recipe card had been written in non-permanent ink then dunked in water — it was illegible. But Cathy kindly sent me a copy from the book.
