Sometimes you can find really strange recipes in old cookbooks. Recipes like sausage bundt cakes, raisin and mayonnaise sandwiches, and jello molds with onions inside.

Chinese takeout fills a really important niche in my life. If I'm feeling down, or feeling homebound, ordering Chinese will instantly put me in a good mood.

Quick & Easy Catfish Wraps
