Who doesn’t love a good celebration? I even attended one while being injured, but this time, it wasn’t from a fall.
My stepfather has two granddaughters who graduated from high school together in Ormond Beach, Florida. My step brother and sisters invited all of us to come down for the celebration.
You can't go wrong with a German Chocolate Cake mix. Add some nuts and caramels to it and you have a winner again. Preheat oven to 350 F. Mix dry cake mix, softened butter and egg until crumbly. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the mixture. Press remaining crumbly dough into an ungreased 9 by 13 inch baking pan. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until crust appears dry. Remove from oven and cool 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in small saucepan over low heat, combine the extra margarine, milk and caramels over low heat, stirring occasionally, until caramels are melted. Pour over crust. Sprinkle with nuts and reserved crumbly mixture.
Animals killed by automobiles are a common in rural areas. Skunk, ‘possum, turtles, and more recently, armadillos, who have managed to work their way east to our area.

Hello, my name is Isabella Humphrey, and I am a new contributor to the Historic Union County newspaper/website. I would like to introduce myself to you and tell you what I hope to accomplish by contributing my articles.

I do remember it came from a rummage sale. I loved that book.
