This recipe was discovered in a recipe box of my mothers. What I found most interesting is that there were two copies of it from 3 years apart with two different sources. Did Mrs. Dabrowski originally send it to the Millers or did she get the recipe from the TV show (and yes Bill and Mildred Miller were real people).

One thing that has remained consistent in my family is Scouting. It started with my Great Grandfather Charles who was heavily involved with Scouting at both St. Ann’s Church in Buffalo, NY & at St. Matthew’s Church (also in Buffalo). My grandmother was not a scout herself but later was a Camp Fire Girls leader (so yes my mom was a Campfire Girl). I myself was a Gold Award Girl Scout & there are a few Eagle Scout cousins. My son is continuing the family tradition as a Cub Scout & my daughter will eventually be a Girl Scout.

Remember a time when department stores still had craft departments? Heck even when all the discount stores had craft departments- now the only discount store with a craft department (if lucky enough to not be a remodeled one) is Walmart. In fact I still look for the arts and crafts department at my local Kmart even though it’s been gone for many years.
So all of these vintage yarns were found at my local goodwill- heck some might still be there. There are fine examples from Sears, Kmart, Grants & Twin Fair.
