The Deviled Egg

Sweet Great Grandmother Eldine brought us some of her homemade deviled eggs for Easter. And the gift wouldn't be complete with out some sort of sentiment or message typed on her typewriter. Yep. She still types out cards and letters on her typewriter! Very cool!

It stated, "There is at least one gap in European history. Her contemporaries failed to record the name of the woman who first thought of stuffing the egg. Nothing is known about her recipe, except that she was liberal with pepper. Her invention was so hot that folk who tried it were reminded of Beelzebub's fiery furnaces. As a result the tis-bit came to be called a deviled egg."
Yum!
