How to Preserve a Husband
This little gem of wisdom is proudly posted by Christmas-Cookies.com webmaster Mimi, mother of 3 and happily married for 10 years. Author unknown.
Be careful in your selection. Do not choose too young. When selected, give your entire thoughts to preparation for domestic use. Some wives insist upon keeping them in a pickle, others are constantly getting them into hot water. This may make them sour, hard, and sometimes bitter. Even poor varieties may be made sweet, warm, and tender and with kisses, wrap them in a mantle of charity. Keep warm with a steady fire of domestic devotion and serve with peaches and cream. Thus prepared they will keep for years.

Would make this again.
Hi, I bought some recipe cards at a garage sale for .10 and found this poem hand written on a piece of note book paper with 2 other cake reciepes on the back. It is so old that the edges are crisp and from it being folded it fell apart in my hands. The words are a little different, but what I thought was unique is that it is signed Mrs. Higgens (after 20 years of married life) Could I have the original? By the way this is the best recipe for a marriage, especially today when most seem to be falling apart. I recommend this to all married people.

For all those who think this is offensive and sexist you have my sympathy. Do you not get that when your spouse (whether male or female) is treated with such loving, unselfish behaviour (if they are worth your time) will return the same many times over?
