Now, this recipe I remember. I mean, come on, it's Tuna Casserole. I'm a big fan of the tuna casserole, for the record. I always try it at potlucks. I especially like ones with crunchy bits on top. My only question for this recipe is...exactly how boiled are the eggs? I'm guessing Hard Boiled, otherwise it might get a bit gooey. Bleh.

This recipe was found in a book called Galley Finale: A Collection of Mariner Soups, Sloops, and Other Incredible Edibles which was put out by The Presbyterian Church of Fair Oaks, Ca in 1978.

2 c. thinly sliced celery
1/2 c. ripe olives, sliced
2 tsp. oregano
2 boiled eggs, sliced

Topping:
1/2 c. crumbled corn flakes
2 Tbsp. melted butter or margarine
1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 c. grated Parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp. minced parsley

Mix soup, milk and mayonnaise. Break tuna into pieces and fold into soup mixture along with peas, celery, olives and oregano. Turn into a two quart shallow baking dish. Blend topping mixture on top. Sprinkle with minced parsley. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes until heated through. Serves 6.

Once again I have unearthed a recipe from my grandmother. Fair warning...she was mighty fond of pimentos. Also, point of clarification, there are no scallops in this recipe. I think she means: "bake in a sauce, milk, etc., often with breadcrumbs on top," but in this instance there are no breadcrumbs. This is another one of those recipes that I don't remember. I also don't think that I could make it myself (supposing that I liked pimentos) as there seems to be a bunch of shorthand here that a certain not-really-a-cook (me) doesn't understand. For example, how long do you heat the sauce? How much do you cook the chicken before you cube it? etc. Ah well. I hope that those of you who do cook enjoy the recipe.

This is another one of the recipes from my grandmother. For the record, I don't generally eat pork, but I thought that y'all might be interested in seeing it anyway. (As you may imagine, I have no memory of this dish, what with the not eating of pork thing.) What do you think about this one?

...And here's another post about a piece of paper I saved...

From the Cork Board:

From the Forgotten English day by day calendar - Tuesday, March 16 (year?)

Banting: doing banting, reducing superfluous fat by living on [a] meat diet, and abstaining from beer, farinaceous food, and vegetables, according to the method adopted by William Banting....The word was introduced about 1864.
- Ebenezer Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable, 1898

Why I saved it:

Uh...sound familiar? Everything old is new again, isn't it Mr. Atkins? *ahem*
