- NOTES : Well, this one led us a merry chase. A version was posted on the net, found by a list member to be incomplete. I started looking for the complete recipe as did the original poster. I found this one by calling Cyn who called Mrs. Johnson. The copy I have came in Lady Bird's envelop e and is on the LBJ ranch note paper. Guess it's the real McCoy.
