                <text>This is an interesting collection in a very cool old, weathered metal box.  I’ve captured the handwritten and typed recipes along with a small few of the printed cards.  This collection really runs the gamut from doughnuts to cocktails with lots of casseroles and baked goods.  There are a few in here that I’ll definitely be trying out.  Though, while it’s my favorite recipe in the batch, I can’t say that I’m eager to try out 'Welch’s Grape Egg Nog'.</text>

Beat egg yolks and put in top
of a double boiler with lemon juice, salt,
and ¼ cup of sugar. Cook over hot water
until of custard consistency. Then add
gelatin which has been soaking in cold
water. When gelatin has dissolved stir in
lemon rind. Cool. When mixture begins
to thicken, fold in egg whites which have
been stiffly beaten with the remaining ½
cup of sugar. Fill a baked 9-inch pie shell
and chill in the refrigerator. Sweetened
whipped cream makes a delicious top-
ping for this pie.

                    ½ cup lemon juice
                    ½ teaspoon salt
                    ¾ cup sugar
                    4 eggs
                    1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin,
                      dissolved in
                    ¼ cup cold water
                    1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
