Thanks for doing the checking for me! I think I'll take the Devil's Food Cake!<br /><br />By the way, John thank you once again for giving to help Baby Fidelis and her mother to travel for surgery coming up soon. I'm sure the organizers and the family appreciate your help so much and I pray that others will follow your kind example. Fidelis is now one year old and that growth is getting so big. I hope that it doesn't do any permanent damage as it is quite dangerous to the brain (and other parts). Thanks so much again!Joyfulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956413632864588646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551752452162286188.post-75002931236273561432015-04-22T11:58:02.840-07:002015-04-22T11:58:02.840-07:00Devil's Food Cake for me. : )Devil's Food Cake for me. : )happyonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14186179870233267082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551752452162286188.post-65989547438289099412015-04-22T11:14:54.714-07:002015-04-22T11:14:54.714-07:00Another great reciep card!

Heard too many stories at home, how they replaced certain items because they didn't have anything else. <br />Worst food in those times was "turnip". Turnip with turnip with turnip. :))<br />And turnips need fat to be tasty and they didn't have that also. So they were just cooked in water, and that's how they tasted :)<br />Had an uncle who didn't eat them for years because he knew they didn't taste good. Then my mom made them one day without telling him what it was, it had enough fat, herbs and spices in it and he loved it. He couldn't believe it was the same thing when my mom told him what it was :))<br /><br />Your card is a great find but I don't think I would try any of those :)<br /><br />Have a great day John!<br />Sigi<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17014263462689860115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551752452162286188.post-3759116795737216942015-04-22T05:13:28.170-07:002015-04-22T05:13:28.170-07:00I think the spice cake sounds delicious, after rea...I think the spice cake sounds delicious, after reading all the ingredients. I vaguely remember Spry in my grandmother's kitchen years ago, but emergency flour? Nope! This is fun, John. :-)DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.com
