' A surprise present the family got up for you—The Wilken Family Home Cooking Album — full of real old- fashioned country cooking recipe» Some time back I said to the Family, see here — considering folks are finding our Family's Whiskey so much to their liking —wouldn’t they love all ourfavor- ite home-cooking recipes. So that’s how we came to get up the book. Naturally when you’re talking of family recipes, my personal specialty is whiskey — being as I’ve worked steady making whis key ever since I was 21 and now I’m 63. Everything I got out of jny dad’s teaching about whiskey, and everything I’ve picked up in my lifetime of distilling. I’ve pdt into our Family’s Whiskey to make it the mildest, tastiest whis key you ever got a swallow of. Grannie Wilken’s sugar cookiee and her buns—and her ginger men. Ma Wilken’s juicy hot mine« p»* that just oozes all. over your plate (and I slipped in MY recipe for a touch of Wilken Family WhiskSy sauce I like on it). Mary Wilken’» atohe Crock pkklee and spicy relish and her pi«-pl*nt ( tarts and the elick chocohiie cake she makes with big fat UrySVs df • rich and creamy frosting slat tiered 1 onto it? - Real prize and extra special home- made puddings and muffins and . biscuits and Ma Wilken’s popovers, batter cakes and flapjack«—all genuine old fashioned country cook ing, not forgetting the way we know : how to sizzle a big plump ¿hicken with crispy crust on him — end smfl ing and gravy and all. And the very swellest Wilken Family Whiskey recipes I person- 1 ally picked up here and there dur ing my forty and more years ip the whiskey business. And I nearly forgot to tell you about the doughnuts! They’re there, too. So when you get the Wilken Family Whiskey, you’re going to taste something I calculate you’ve been hankering to get your hands onto for some time — the kind of real smooth whiskey we distillers drink ourselves — personally supervised, by me and the boys. I recommend jotting right down now to get some. And don’t slip up about getting your free recipe book 1 The picture up there is the Wilken Family at supper time That’s me over to the right in the picture, and my son Harry Jr. is the boy sitting closest me.
