Myra- I KNOW this one is NOT for you! LOL

I've wanted to make this recipe for awhile. Not that long ago eggs were cheap and naturally I couldn't find the recipe. They have come down in price from a high of 3.29 a dozen. I wonder if we will ever see 99 cents a dozen again.

This is a good recipe. Will make it again.
