The ph...Re Candle Salad and Anne Shirley, actress:<br /><br />The photo showing Anne with her recipe, on p 208, for this comes from a book with a copyright date of 1938. The title is "FAMOUS STARS FAVORITE FOODS". The editor's name was Fannie Sniff. (Anne was born in NY on the 17th April 1919). On p 75 is a recipe from Deanna Durbin, one of Anne's best friends. It was for "Fudge Cake with a Fudge Icing and Filling".annesbubblebathandmoonlighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05317322484399714669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2660641345241219924.post-67737430649645682622014-10-26T19:26:03.186-07:002014-10-26T19:26:03.186-07:00I can only imagine the snickering around the table...I can only imagine the snickering around the table when the host announced, "Hold on while I go light my nuts."<br />Brian Francishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02779793839672812019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2660641345241219924.post-23421320013809778252014-10-26T08:53:33.529-07:002014-10-26T08:53:33.529-07:00I know this is a really old post, but I just ran a...I know this is a really old post, but I just ran across this recipe in a 1936 cookbook. Instead of the cherry on top, it calls for a sliver of Brazil nut for the "wick", which you light before serving. That might make it slightly more candle-like. Maybe. I'm still going to be there was some snickering going on when it was served.The Nostalgic Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09096882611972543708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2660641345241219924.post-25915972606131474712013-11-06T17:07:06.588-08:002013-11-06T17:07:06.588-08:00Thanks for the heads up, Kirsty.
