Subject: resin pot
We recently acquired our now deceased uncle`s old resin pot filled with slightly used resin.
Other than the time taken to heat the resin (too long for us,) the potatoes are out of this world.
We would be interested in selling the pot/resin if you think there would be buyers interested.
If you have a minute, please let us know.
Ernie & Jean in Tampa.
Phaed,
Attached are 4 photos of the 'resin pot' mentioned in this email. The pot is very old steel,
loop handle, measure 9" in diameter and is 6.5" deep.
It is currently 3/4 filled w/ original/old resin.
Regards,
Ernie

Subject: chocolate cake called "Wacky Cake"
My mother used to make this when I was a child. I remember you mixed it part of the way
with cocoa and water then at some point you poked holes in the batter while in the pan
and then put vinegar (?) in it. I think. It was just the most delicious cake; so moist
and dense. I have never found the recipe again.

Hello Holly,
I found a recipe like that. See below.
Phaed
Wacky Cake
Ingredients
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup baking cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 Tablespoons vinegar
3/4 cup Oil
2 cups water
Preparation
Mix flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt in a 9x13 pan.
Make three holes in the flour mixture.
In one put vanilla; in another the vinegar, and in the third the oil.
Pour water over all and stir well.
Bake at 350 degrees F until it springs back to the touch or a toothpick
inserted near the center comes out clean - about 25 minutes.
Icing
1 stick margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup milk
powdered sugar
Melt margarine and add vanilla and milk. Add powdered sugar until desired
consistency - thin but spreadable.
It thickens as it cools.

for Homemade Chocolate Alba Drink Mix.
I can't find it anywhere on the Internet, but I bet you can!
