TERRE HAUTE — With 824 miles to cover, there are still many restaurants, bed and breakfasts, food-related businesses, and private individuals to consider for Volume II of the Historic National Road Yard Sale Cookbook.

Send as many recipes as you wish. Keep in mind that it’s important to have recipes represent a specific state and region of a particular state. A history of the recipe also accentuates the cookbook.

Recipes from restaurants that are now out of business should be included. People have an affinity for eateries of the past. Also, old time recipes are fun. Consider scouring vintage church cookbooks and almanacs. Any brownie recipes, or derivations thereof (think butterscotch brownies, congo bars), are sought.

Send the recipes by April 1 to info@oldstorefrontantiques.com; or mail recipes to: Ms. Patricia McDaniel, POB 357, Dublin IN, 47335. Call (765) 478-4809.

A few copies of the Historic National Road Yard Sale Cookbook are still available. here are 325 different recipes in the book. The price is $20, including postage and insurance.

Preorders are also being taken for Volune II of the Historic National Road Yard Sale Cookbook. The price is also $20 including. Purchase both books for $35.

TRIED 'N' TRUE: Serve this apple roll warm with whipped topping
I have revised this recipe to be a little bit easier for our times. You know how the old recipes were — butter the size of an egg, pinch and a dab (also my all-time favorite), add flour by the handful. This original apple recipe came from Gene’s aunt, Ginnie Myles. I add sweetener so Gene can enjoy these also.
