Meet the Cook: There were 11 of us to cook for when I was young. This was a recipe that my mother had. If there were cracked eggs from the laying hens she kept, it was always a good way of using them up! Like my parents, my husband and I have nine children, all of them grown. We are also the grandparents of 13. -Dorothy Haag, Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin
