                <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>

# Noel Bowl

*Bon Appétit, November 1990*

*Yields 10 servings*

## Ingredients

- 4 cups water
- 2 cups sugar
- 12 whole cloves
- 4 cinnamon sticks
- 4 allspice berries
- 2 Tbsp chopped fresh ginger
- 8 cups apple cider
- 3 cups fresh lemon juice (from about 9 lemons)
- 2 cups fresh orange juice (from about 6 oranges)
- Rum (optional)

## Instructions

1. Combine the first six ingredients (going across: water, sugar, whole cloves, cinnamon sticks, allspice berries, and chopped fresh ginger) in a heavy large saucepan over medium heat.
2. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Boil 10 minutes.
3. Remove syrup from heat. Cover and let stand 1 hour.
4. Strain sugar syrup into a large bowl. Stir in apple cider, orange and lemon juices. Chill punch, or warm in a heavy large pot over medium heat.
5. Transfer to a large bowl. Serve.
6. Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.

## Editor's Notes

- **"Orange and lemon juices"** referenced in instructions but only lemon juice (3 cups) appears in the ingredient list. Orange juice quantity absent from card; 2 cups fresh orange juice (approximately 6 oranges) inferred from recipe volume and citrus balance. The original Bon Appétit November 1990 source likely specified this quantity but it was not captured on the card.</text>
