Oops! I forgot it was Thursday.  Oh well, since the newsletter is done I will send it out anyway.  I can't seem to remember that Thursday is the day I don't send out the newsletter.  Doing the newsletter is the highlight of the day. I am so lucky in life to be able to do what I enjoy most - this newsletter.

Nancy, In the March 6 newsletter you had a recipe for a Sweet Cream Cake. The recipe called for 1 cup of Sweet Cream. What is Sweet Cream?
Nancy in PA.

Many thanks to Sharon, Mariann and Janey for the suggestions to clean stuffed animals. Not sure if mine will fit in a garbage bag with the cornmeal, but will try it!

Pat in Atlanta requested a French dressing from a Charleston recipe book. If she means " Charleston Receipts", I have the book, but there are 3 French dressing recipes, one only for fruit. Which one are you requesting?
Athena in DE

Comment
The book she was referring to was Charleston Receipts.  I changed the spelling because I thought it was misspelled. A lot of members put receipts rather than recipes. I change the spelling before it gets in the newsletter.
Nancy Rogers

I went to Nancy's niece's site for the recipe card download and found so much on it.  First I couldn't figure out how to download them. After I read your message again it said to click on the recipe card picture and it became an easy task.  It saved to my computer like a charm. I looked at the right side of the page and found a quilt pattern template.  Again I clicked on the picture of a quilt pattern and it downloaded the quilt pattern template.  I found things from candy bar wrappers to gardening tips.  I loved the section Audrey writes on simplifying life. Thank you for recommending your niece's page.  It will be one I visit often (especially for Friday's Freebie.)

The recipe card download link will be active until March 13, 2007 (1:00pm Central time zone). I downloaded the recipes and the blank recipe cards and  love the blank recipe card with all the daisies on it. I am very proud of my niece, Audrey.  She is a really nice person and so talented.

All the recipes for raisin pies have made me remember grandmama's raisin-pecan pie. She passed away in 1969 so I know the recipe is at least 40 years old but I do not know its origin. My recipe card was typed on a manual typewriter and is covered with cooking splatters. Hope you all
enjoy it.
Julia in PA (used to be GA)

Raisin-Pecan Pie
1 cup sugar
1 stick butter or margarine
2 eggs
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 cup raising
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 tsp. vinegar

Blend all ingredients, adding vinegar last. Pour into an unbaked pie shell and bake at 300º for about 1 hour.

Diane in Pottstown Pa (March 7th newsletter) is looking for an individual cheesecakes recipe. This is so easy and very good.
Margo/Boston

Miniature cheesecakes
Bottom crust:
vanilla wafers or
2 cups graham cracker crumbs and a stick of melted butter

Filling:
2 large cream cheese (16 oz total) at room temperature
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla

Put cupcake papers in muffin tins and place a vanilla wafer flat side down in
bottom of paper. With hand mixer blend filling ingredients, and spoon into
muffin papers , 3/4 full, on top of wafer.

Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Top with cherry pie
filling or other (blueberry) or top with preserves like strawberry or
pineapple while still warm, and refrigerate. I find 3 cherries with a little of
the sauce fits just right on the top of each cake.

Nancy. newsletter friends and especially Gloria from Tucson. As a child my mom made the best potato pancakes and now I think I'm very close to hers. W hen i was the kid it was my job to grate the potatoes with a hand grater, Not so much fun. Now I use my food processor and one two three it is done, I'll try to give you my version but it is not a written recipe. here goes it. I use 4 medium russet potatoes, peel and grate them in the food processor, along with Ma small to medium yellow onion , one egg and about 3/4 cup of Bisquick. mix all together to a heavy pancake mixture .Now I use Mrs. Dash for seasoning but you can use a dash of salt and then pepper. Pan grill them as you would a regular pancake .You can tell when they are done by the
glow they have, yum We use them for breakfast or a fried fish dinner.
Try them..

For Athena in DE looking for ways to clean a very large stuffed animal. While I haven't used it to clean stuffed animals, bedbound folks in the hospital or in nursing homes can use "dry shampoo" that can be found in drug stores without getting their hair wet. Just sprinkle the shampoo into the hair and brush it out. This might work on the stuffed animal. Or, she may want to try one of the "shake-and-vacumn" carpet shampoos.

Carrabb's Italian Chicken Soup
5 celery ribs
4 medium carrots, peeled
1 large yellow onion
2 medium potatoes, peeled
1 large green bell pepper
1 can (14-ounce size) imported Italian plum tomatoes
1 (5-pound size) hen, washed and cut into 8 pieces
1/2 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
6 quarts water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Dice celery, carrots, onion, potatoes and bell pepper into 1/4-inch pieces. Chop tomatoes; reserve all juice. Place vegetables, tomatoes with their juice, chicken pieces, parsley and garlic in a 10-quart stockpot. Add water. Season with salt and pepper. Slowly bring soup to a boil over low heat. Skim off foam that rises to the surface; may have to skim 2 or 3 times. Partially cover pot and simmer 2 hours. When soup is finished, remove chicken pieces with a slotted spoon. Let cool.

Meanwhile, mash vegetables in the bottom of the pot with the back side of a large cooking spoon or id you have a potato masher When chicken has cooled enough to handle, remove skin and bones and return meat to soup.

Notes: Soup is best served the day after it is made. Refrigerate and remove fat that solidifies on the surface of the soup. Serve soup with rice or small, stubby pasta such as pastina, tubetti or small elbow macaroni. For better flavor, cook the rice or pasta in the soup when reheating. Add freshly grated Parmesan or Romana cheese, if desired.

This recipe for Carrabba's Mama Mandola's Chicken Soup serves/makes 1.5
gallons

Hi Nancy and all the good cooks out there. I am looking for a couple of recipes that use Sun Dried Tomatoes. I bought some and haven't a clue what to do with them.
Thanks, Sue in GA

For Ann in Texas. I'd like to suggest the cookbooks found on this link for her daughter in college. They are easy recipes using 3, 4 and 5 ingredients. They can be purchased there, but just as easily found on other websites in used, but good, condition (Amazon, ebay, Half.com, etc.). The link is: http://www.cookbookresources.com/. Extremely simple recipes - some not to my taste - but not a bad way to begin to get familiar with different flavor combinations. Good luck!!
Wendy in NJ

I missed the recipe for the party bread. Could someone please tell me what letter it was in? It sounds so yummy. Thanks, Nancy for all you do.
Earlene from NC

The email address to respond to messages and to send your TNT (tried) recipe has changed.  I change it every several months when I get more junk mail than messages at an email address.  The average junk mail messages per day that come to my email  is more than 7000 messages.  It take more time to sort through the mail than do the newsletter.  I do not have a filter on the email address because some of the words in cooking are in the spam list. Because of this some of the messages would not make it through to me if spam filters were applied to the email.  Example fruit cocktail and I love your site.  Please remember to use the email address in the online newsletter to send your messages. Presently there is not enough room for the messages from you all and the spam messages with the former email address. I am turning on the spam filter to the other addresses used the the past so messages may not get through at those addresses.
Nancy

Hello to Nancy and all the great cooks out there!
I have just been given 2 frozen whole salmon filets and have no idea how to cook them. Can anyone help me with a TNT recipe. As large as the filets are I will probably need several recipes...haha. Also, I am still looking for an old recipe called Hot Milk Cake. It is rather like a pound cake and has no frosting. Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance, Merry

HI Nancy,
Hope the weather is warm for you there in Texas because it is really cold here in Aurora, Canada. Thank you for the wonderful newsletter you put out and all the hard work you do on our behalf.

Thank you Rose Marie from Minnesota for the apple cookie recipe. The recipe is the very one I have been looking for. I also sent my thanks in for the other apple recipe that was in newsletter but my thanks didn't get published.
Dee Ontario,Canada

For Diane in Pottstown, PA:
Here is a recipe I found in my files for individual cheesecakes. Hope it
helps.

DREAMY MINI CHEESECAKES
1 - 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/3 c. sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. almond extract
8 drops red food color
12 vanilla wafers or chocolate wafers
Melted chocolate, opt.
Fresh or frozen raspberries, opt.

Beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl with electric mixer on medium
speed until light and fluffy. Add egg, extracts and food color; beat well. Line
12 muffin cups with paper baking cups. Place wafer in bottom of each muffin
cup. Evenly divide cheese mixture among cups. Bake at 350° for 25 to 30
minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Refrigerate 4 hours to overnight.
Drizzle with melted chocolate, if desired. Top with fresh or frozen
raspberries, if desired. Makes 12.

I would think any color of food coloring would work to make them match the
brides wedding colors. I also see no reason you couldn't use something
besides chocolate and raspberries to top them.
Terese in Sioux Falls, SD

Nancy, I just finished reading your 3/3/07 newsletter and I just want to applaud you again, not only for ALL you do (and that seems impossible that one person can handle all you do), but the QUALITY of everything you do absolutely amazes me. There were five recipes from the archives you published that I wanted to keep and because they were so well written and organized I was able to move them to McTagit, format them for Mastercook and have them in my Recipe Exchange cookbook in a matter of minutes. Thank you SO much for all you do and thanks to everyone for such excellent recipes! Here is a quick, fast, good recipe along with my thanks.
Barbara in AL

Festive Vegetable Bake
A French's & Campbell's Recipe
Makes 5 servings

1 (16-oz.) pkg. frozen broccoli, carrots and cauliflower
1 (10-3/4 oz.) can cream of broccoli soup (or cream of anything you prefer)
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 cup finely shredded cheddar cheese
1-1/3 cups French fried onions

In 2-quart microwave safe casserole, combine vegetables, soup, milk, soy
sauce, cheese and 2/3 cups French fried onions. Microwave on HIGH for
10-12 minutes (or bake in 375 degree oven for 30-35 minutes) until
vegetables are hot, stirring occasionally. Top with remaining 2/3 onions.

In the March 7 newsletter there is a recipe for German Chocolate Cheesecake. I believe the poster was Atlanta Pat. There is no amount of cream cheese in the filling part of the recipe. I would assume there is at least 2-3 eight ounces packages in it?
Marilyn from TX

Luby’s Macaroni and Cheese
8 ounces dry elbow macaroni (2 cups)
2 tablespoons nonfat dry milk
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1-¼ cups boiling water
3 cups shredded American Cheese (almost a 16 ounce package)
1/4 teaspoon salt

Cook macaroni according to package directions. Drain. Heat oven to 350 degrees. In large bowl, mix dry milk, flour and butter. Gradually add boiling water, beating constantly. Add 1-½ cups of the cheese and continue beating until smooth and creamy. Stir in macaroni, 1 cup of the remaining cheese and salt. Transfer to lightly greased 2 quart baking dish. Cover with foil. Bake 25 minutes. Remove foil. Sprinkle with remaining ½ cup cheese. Continue baking 1 minute or until cheese melts.

*I used my green 9x13 inch glass Pyrex dish.

I have tried multiple Macaroni and Cheese recipes but the recipes have called for shredded cheddar cheese. The shredded cheddar cheese makes the sauce grainy. I have tried Velveeta Cheese but that makes the sauce too rich. This recipe is excellent and the sauce is creamy, not grainy or too rich. Next time I make this recipe I will use a smaller macaroni. I used the large size macaroni and I think the dish would be more attractive if the macaroni were smaller.
Thanks, Joan San Antonio, Texas

This is for Diane, Pottstown, PA (3/7/07 Newsletter) who is looking for individual cheesecakes. I have a "miniature cheese cake" recipe I have used for many years from the very old "Fannie Farmer Cookbook". Since you have a lot of time to experiment, I am wondering if you might play around with this until you get the size you want. This recipe is for 24 cheesecakes made in small muffin tins. Maybe you could quadruple and fit in something larger. Just a thought. Good Luck.
Barbara in AL

Cheese Cake Filling:
Crush 2 3-ounce packages cream cheese. Beat in 2 Tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1 egg.

This is my Mothers recipe and I just love them. They are quick and easy to make. I use whole wheat flour when I make them and add some chopped nuts.

March 7th newsletter Gloria in Tuscon requested "potato pancakes" recipe; here is our family recipe which not only our family enjoy but the neighbors tell me they are the best and when they come to our house for a dinner they all want "potato pancakes". Hope you will enjoy them as well.

For 12 medium size pancakes you will need to peel and shred 6 large russet potatoes. Combine the shredded potatoes with 2 eggs, salt and pepper to suit taste and about 2 tablespoons flour. Mix well and fry very thinly in small amount of oil until browned on both sides. Serve with
applesauce or syrup. I make a small pancake first to taste for flavor.

Note:If you have a non-stick griddle you only need to apply enough oil to dampen the griddle. You can also fry and crumble 1/2 pound of bacon and chop 1/2 cup onion to add to the pancake batter before frying if you wish. This was my grandmother's recipe.
Marilyn M. Block

In the newsletter of March 6, Atlanta Pat requested a French Dressing recipe from Charleston Receipts. This is from the book published in 1989. Hope this is the one she is looking for.

French Dressing
2 round teaspoons salt
1 round teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon mustard
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp celery salt
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 clove garlic
1 cup olive oil
1/4 cup vinegar

Put in quart jar and shake well before using. Half malt and half tarragon
vinegar is good.
Sue in East Tennessee

In the March 7 newsletter, Glory from Tucson wanted a recipe for potato pancakes, as she had never had them. I bet you will get a whole lot of recipes and they are very simple to make.

You can make some mashed potatoes, or normally they are from leftovers. Add 1-2 eggs, depending on how much mp you have. Add some flour to thicken the mixture to where it will shape well into a patty, not too thick and add salt and pepper to taste. Fry in a small amount of oil until golden brown on the bottom and turn over and mash down a little and brown on the other
side. When they are done take out of pan and drain slightly on a paper towel. Eat them while they are hot or warm, and enjoy!
Barb in OKC

Hi Nancy, this is for Glory from Tucson. She asked for a Potato Pancake recipe.

My Mother was born in Germany and my Father came from Hungary. I grew up with such wonderful comfort foods and want to keep the family tradition going for my children, so I am making a cookbook of my family recipes and here is a couple of them. Hope you like them...they are like Lay's Potato Chips, you can't stop with one lol. Let me know how you like them.
Evelyn, DeWitt, Mi.

Kish’s German Potato Pancakes (Kartoffelpfannkuchen-Rhineland and Berlin)

These small pancakes (about 5 x 3 ) are called Reibekuchen in the Rhineland and Kartoffelpuffer in Berlin. They are usually served with applesauce, sour cream and hot coffee at lunch- time or for a evening meal.

2-3 lbs peeled potatoes/ finely grated (I like Russets)
1 large onion/finely grated
2 eggs
1 tsp. salt
2 oz flour (if potatoes are really juicy)
1/4 tsp. black pepper/ optional
vegetable oil for frying

Wash and grate (hand grater) {{{see note below}}} the potatoes and onion. Hand mix in all the other ingredients. Heat 2-3 Tablespoons of oil in a frying pan or more if needed (no stick pans are nice but you want them fried
in oil).

Place 3 tablespoons of the potatoes mixture into the hot oil and with a spoon level out till somewhat flat. Pan will probably fit 3 pancakes at a time. Fry them till crispy and golden brown on both sides. Serve hot.

( I eat them cold too) : ) This recipe is sufficient for 4 people (very generously).

Note *
The only way to get the true German pancake flavor and consistency is by hand grating the potatoes and onions. I have used my food processor before when I was in a hurry though.

Kish’s Frikadel (Fried Meat Patties)
Please use your own judgment on amounts, I am a dump cook : )
2 lbs ground chuck or sirloin
3 slices of white bread, soaked in water (lightly squeeze out excess water)
3-4 eggs
6 green onions sliced (more or less)
3 cloves garlic minced (more or less)
½ green pepper chopped (more or less)
2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper or to taste
2 cups bread crumbs (salted)
2 Tbls oil (depending on how lean meat is)

Mix all ingredients together, except bread crumbs. Form into 3-4 inch patties. Dip patties in bread crumbs. Heat small amount of oil in pan. Fry patties in oil on medium heat until golden brown or done.

Serve with Cabbage Noodles and Creamy Cucumber Salad
Since everyone seems to be in a baking mood ... including me lol ... here is a great recipe for Cinnamon Loaf Bread, it's moist and full of flavor...and smells WONDERFUL when baking!
Evelyn Dewitt, Mi. Enjoy!

Cinnamon Loaf
servings (makes two loaf pans)
1 hour 10 min prep

1 cup butter
4 eggs
2 cups sour cream
2 teaspoons baking powder
4 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups white sugar
4 cups flour
1 teaspoons baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt

Cinnamon Mix
( you can double this mix if you want to sprinkle half on top of loaf (do this after cutting through the batter with knife)
3/8 cup brown sugar (3/8 is equal to 6 Tbls)
2 tablespoons cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon allspice

Beat all ingredients and spread half of the mixture in a greased loaf pan. Mix together the cinnamon mixture and spread over first layer. Put on remaining cake batter and cut through with a knife. Bake at 350F for 45-50 minutes.

Hi Nancy, This is for the problem of unwashable stuffed toys. I have bought numerous toys at thrift stores, and yard sales, washed them, added fabric softener to rinse, and dried on low heat cycle. They always came out looking like new. These were distributed to residents of nursing homes, they all like to have something like a stuffed animal. Most of them had stories to tell about their pets they had before moving into the nursing home, and were so appreciative of any attention. The lady might try hand washing with baby shampoo also, and rinsing in the shower. Baby powder and cornstarch are other alternatives she might try.

Thanks Linda from AL for the Apricot Oatmeal bar recipe. I plan on trying it along with the Pineapple one too. I am still looking for the ones with the white chocolate.
Thanks again Barb - La Porte, IN

Hi Nancy and fur balls-this is for Ann in Texas.
Make you own easy cookbook-I did for both my daughter-in-laws. I bought a nice hard back folder and typed up my recipes-step by step-from boiling eggs to making hamburgers, grilled cheese sandwiches -even the very inexperienced girls or guys will understand it-if you do it step by step. The girls just loved my cookbooks-because they wanted to please their husbands with mom's recipes.

This makes a great wedding or shower gift also. You can type up the recipes on here-print them and them slide them into clear folder inserts.
Hope this helps-Karen in Ohio

To Lyn in Houston-- www.snacksby.com. I have gone there and they will tell you measurements, and you can list ingredients as to what is in your pantry and they will come up with a recipe. Hope that is what you want.

In the Mar 7 newsletter, Ruth requested the recipe for Idiot Biscuits by Margaret, Tulsa. It was in the Feb 13 newsletter.
Vergie, Lurinne/Mississippi, and Dee in SIL

Idiot Biscuits
3 ounce pkg. cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 Cup butter, room temperature
1 Cup flour

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients in bowl and knead with hands. Roll dough into balls the size of golf balls. Pat each ball and flatten into biscuit shape. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
Margaret, Tulsa

Hi Nancy,
Re: Idiot Biscuits,  these biscuits do not rise.  They are about  like a soft cookie in size when baked.
Margaret

This is for Athena in DE about cleaning stuffed animals, after my Grandson spilled canned pasta on one of his stuffed toys and didn't tell anyone until it had dried a couple days, I sprayed it with foaming rug cleaner, let it dry and brush it off with a old hair brush, dry dog or people shampoo might work too.
Nancy in Virginia Beach, VA

Hi Nancy,
This is in request to Sue in Texas, (Feb 17th) for a recipe for apple
dumplings made with crescent rolls.

I just received my April 2007 Home Cooking Magazine and there is a recipe
in there for Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings. It sounds like what she was
looking for. I think that I might try this myself!

Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings
2 Granny Smith Apples
2 (8 -count) containers crescent roll dough
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
1 teapoon vanilla
Cinnamon to taste
10 ounces ( 1-1/4 cups) Mountain Dew soda

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Peel and slice apples into 16 slices. Roll 1 apple slice into each crescent roll and place in a 13 x 9 inch baking dish.

Melt butter, sugar and vanilla in a saucepan. Do not caramelize; use just enough heat to melt the sugar. Pour mixture over rolls; sprinkle with cinnamon and pour Mountain Dew over the top of the rolls. Bake for 30 minutes. Cover with foil and bake another 10 minutes.
Make 16.

Nancy, Is there something wrong with the word search you have on your
newsletter? I usually play it everyday but the past few days it goes to an
error page.
Thanks! Wendy

Nancy,
The first weekend in June, I am going to be going through Amarillo on my way to Estes Park, CO to get married. We are going to ride the tram up to the top of Prospect Mountain and get married on top. On the way, we are going to stop in Clayton, NM on the first night. (This is where my
grandparents homesteaded). Well, so much for that. I am needing a recipe for a banana cream chocolate cake. My fiancé says it is a chocolate cake with a banana cream filling and chocolate icing. If any of you have something similar I would appreciate a copy.
Thanks, Zelda in Grand Prairie, TX
