Hello, All!!

Oh, dear; I lost Immigrant's recipe after I recorded it from the phone.  I
was tryijg to eliminate the long pauses between some of the word, and the
computer, it gobbled that file I was working on, so it's gone and
unretrievable. Could you please repost that one recipe for me?  Sorry to put
you through so much bother.

Thanks so much.

Marie
