    Having searched wildly for this book, thinking it was a product of St. Micheals in Maryland, and then finding it's not the Irish spelling, it's the English, that is, St. Michaels, I finally found it. For any one who is interested, it's Southern Accent (no plural S on accent) by the Junior League of Pine Bluff, Arkansas. There recipe is on page 186 an attributed to a Mrs. John Crenshaw. At least in the 1982 edition, I don't know if it's included in those before or after. I presume that's the edition Rottman has, given that his says 1983 written on it. There are a good many copies floating around on Amazon, eBay, etc. Hope that helps!:-)

    Twenty nine years is an awfully long time to be hankering for a one-time recipe.
    It must have planted a mighty good memory in your cortex.
    Nice to see you again.
    Hope all is well.
    Kind Regards
    Joyce
