Good morning, and may your remaining May days be delicious. Today we have no new requests but some significant repeats. Where, some of you asked, could you find a recipe for cinnamon crumb cake? Menus and recipes for ravenous teenage athletes? Advice about the safety of foods canned in aluminum cans? Instructions for homemade pretzel bread and rolls and any recipes for squash?

CANDY BARS & BROWNIES

Today’s contributions came from friends both new and old. Leda Roberts of McMinnville, Tenn., provided a brownie containing candy, a ham-and-cheese delicacy and a beach menu idea straight from a state park far from a beach.

Ms. Roberts’ brownies have candy bars (in this case, Hershey’s) on top of the mix instead of in the batter as we had last week, and she described them as “very popular with my family and friends.”
