ARTICHOKES WITH SPICY CRAB This recipe came from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Cooksey Estate in Allen Texas in 1993.

This does sound good; it combines two of my favorite things artichokes and crab. Not a dish I will get to make unfortunately. Finding “baby” artichokes is hard enough but finding them in Kansas is impossible. Makes my mouth water though.
