Hi Kathy
Karen in Georgia here.>I am so glad you posted this recipe!!! I got this from the Osmond Spotlight magazine and used to make this a lot in high school and right after I got married. Somehow I lost the recipe and when I saw you posting recipes..I started to write and ask you about this one. So imagine how happy I was to see it posted. It and Jays Carrot Cake were two recipes I have made many times and glad to have back.
I used to post before you closed the blog to nonmembers..and couldnt figure out how to join and post.>So Im glad you have changed it back. I appreciate the time and effort you take to keep us inspired and up to date with your family.
\Have not seen any of you in person since 79..but hoping to maybe make it to Tampa in Feb. Take Care and thanks again.
Karen in Georgia.
PS>>Any chance the Mother Osmond Cookbook could be reprinted??I dont know the legal issues..but was sure hoping Michelle could get it done.>Would love to have a copy.
