I found my Mum's old recipie. It took me ages because she had a rather obscure filing system whereby recipies were filed under the name of the person she got it from. It worked for her but it makes it hard for me to navigate her recipie folder.
Luckily this one is typed because the hand written ones can be a bit hard to decipher
