Sylvia's comments: The kids at Irene's school loved it -- Irene came
home and asked me to make it again! I think it needs less fruit
spread and less pumpkin pie spice, and next time I'll use applesauce
for all the butter.

The History of Recipes
We can read the history of `recipes` way back into distant history, at least as far as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. However, generally, these old recipes were just primitive pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
Later on, there were two interesting books dating from the fourteenth century ; a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these books are unconnected to the indian food that appears on menues today, but instead descriptions of the types of food enjoyed by the rich and powerful of those days. By the advent of the twentieth century, cookery publications were in high demand, due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased free time and disposable income. |
We hope you enjoy this Apricot Cupcakes recipe.
