Mini Top Hat

This is a pattern for a crocheted mini top hat or pork pie hat. It uses front post crochet and is worked by measurement rather than a set number of rows.

Chicken Tetrazzini

I liked this one when I was a kid. I have trouble eating pasta these days, but I do like this recipe.

Baked Ziti

I actually can’t remember if I have made this or not. I do not eat much pasta now.

Kay’s Tombstone Fudge Recipe

This is a “famous” recipe for fudge that has a little story behind it. Everyone always wanted Kay’s recipe, so, in the end, it went on her gravestone.

Caramel Icing

Again, another recipe for caramel icing. This one is from my grandmother Gladah Childs. The other one is the one we usually use though.

Grits Soufflé

This souffle uses grits, garlic cheese roll (I don’t actually know what that is!), egg, and butter/margarine.

Chop Suey

This is a recipe I can remember my mother making when I was a kid. Have not tried making it myself.

Small Jelly Role

This looks yummy, but never tried because I didn’t want to try to roll cake.

Baked Brie

I love cheese.

Jim’s Fruit Salad (Ambrosia)

This is one of my dad’s favorites that my grandmother made. Coconut, marshmallows, crushed pineapple, mandarin oranges, and sour cream. You can also add grapes, but we usually didn’t.
