Dear Friend,
Republicans, in and out of Congress, have
contributed their favorite recipes to this cookbook.
I hope that all of them will tempt you and that most
of them will please you.
At our house we like Betty's pancakes and
President Eisenhower also enjoyed them when her
recipe was used at a recent breakfast in his honor.
The recipe is not in the book SO wehad it printed
above.
Best wishes and good eating.
