Traditions

Yesterday was the day to dip into my filebox of tattered paper to find this. This paper is about 50 yrs old. It's the receipe on it for kugalee that belonged to my grandmother that was given to my mom. My grandma didn't need directions. She had made this so many times that the directions were in her soul. But since this is only the second time I've made this by myself I needed directions.
Anything calling for 5 eggs and a stick of butter .... not to mention the entire package of bacon with grease that I used ..... can't be seen as a food that's really good for you. But it's part of my past. Part of my parents history and sometimes that alone makes it ok.
1.5 hrs of prep time and into the oven for a little over 2 hrs. This is the end result. Yummy!

I like how a dish towel is part of the ingredients.
