Mom I love about all your answers. About the only ones I'd change are 5 and 6 5 would be iced tea Or Pepsi. 6 would be divinity or dark chocolate. Where are you in North western Penn? I grew up in Ohio across from Wheeling, W va. Sometimes I really miss the hills and the mountians. Margaret

Texas Transplant, where in Ohio did you grow up? I am from the Mt. Vernon area myself. I always loved the south eastern part of the state. I now live in Oregon in the mountains. Love it!

I LOVE divinity!! My sweet mil with the first husband made a lot of it every Christmas. Do you put a pecan on top of each piece? We do. She was a wonderful Christian Lady that never had a bad word in her mouth. She would be very mad at herself mostly and she would say fiddlesticks!! Back on topic, lol, she left a recipe box to my daughter and so far every recipe has not worked as well as hers. We think she left out an ingredient in every one. Not something that would make it fail but something that would make it the best.

I hear the likes of Faye sending out divinity to others too!
Kindness begets kindness. Enjoy life!

Faye,
Your MIL probably cooked like my grandmother did. "Well it is a handful of this & a pinch of that & a spoonfull of this". I had to get her to tell me how much a handful was & how much was really in a pinch & was she talking about a t or a T when she said a spoonfull. I can make her dressing now because I hemmed her down once before her mind got bad. I am proud of it.
Hugs, Jane

Meercat, I make the kind that I drop with a spoon. And a lot of times I don't get out of the bowl soon enough. When I was a kid we made it with Black walnuts but now I make it with pecans. Have you put your address anywhere in these Threads? Margaret.
