                <text>This was a great collection to go through for a few reasons.&#13;
&#13;
First, every card in the collection was typewritten on a typewriter with dates spanning decades. In addition, most of the cards were recipes transcribed from magazines, newspapers, and TV. This tells me that the original owner was very passionate about the process of cataloging these recipes in addition to the recipes themselves. With the recipes, there are several other odds and ends like tags from souvenirs. But, in addition to the tags are typed cards transcribing the tags. And, to round out the love for these cards, every single card had a plastic sleeve protecting it.&#13;
&#13;
Second, this collection had some interesting recipes that originally caught my eye. Where else would I find recipes for 'Squirrel and Biscuits', 'Roast Opossum', and 'Armadillo'?! On top of the interesting ones, there are a few that stand out as recipes I want to try. 'Old-Fashioned Cheesecake with Zwieback Crust' sounds super tasty and introduced me to zwieback. And, I love oysters, so 'Scalloped Oysters' will definely hit the table at some point in the near future.&#13;
&#13;
Very fun collection and I wish I knew more about the original owner. I think we'd have a lot in common.</text>

BROCCOLI SAUCE FOR PASTA          THE WASHINGTON POST

1 bunch fresh broccoli (about 1½ pounds)
½ cup olive oil
1 teaspoon fresh garlic, minced
¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes, julienned
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon minced fresh oregano or parsley,
   or 1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary (optional)
1 pound pasta, cooked
Freshly grated Parmesan to taste

   Remove bite-sized florets from the broccoli.
(Save the rest for soup, if you wish.)
   Blanch florets in a large quantity of boiling
salted water for about 3 minutes or until bare-
ly tender.

Card 1 Back:

   Drain broccoli and rinse in cold water to stop
cooking.
   Heat olive oil in a large skillet or sauce-
pan.  Add the garlic and stir for a minute or
two over heat.  Add broccoli florets, sun-dried
tomatoes, lemon juice and optional fresh herbs
and toss in oil.  Add cooked pasta and toss.
   Serve broccoli and pasta dish immediately
with freshly grated Parmesan passed separately.
   Makes 4-6 servings.
   TEST KITCHEN NOTES:  Asparagus can be sub-
stituted for the broccoli in the recipe.  Cut
the asparagus (preferably thin stalks) into 1½"
diagonal slices.   There should be about 4 cups.
Blanch them as you would the broccoli.
