                <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>
