I recognize the name Havia Supai.  I've seen video footage of the canyons
and waterfalls on their land.  It looks like paradise.

RH> I've also seen it referred to as oleomargerine. Used to be sold as white,
RH> with a packet of yellow coloring to be mixed in--folks in Wisconsin didn't
RH> want it to be confused with butter.

I read the newspaper archives in the local historical society.  Around the
time oleomargin was introduced, the local dairy farmers petitioned the
state to make it illegal.  There's no fighting "progress".

RH> Here's something like it, from my mother in law.

Thanks for the recipe!  I saved a copy, and may make it soon.  I plan to
house sit for a friend over New Years and will have a kitchen to myself.

  Carol's notes:
  
  * Better with 1 cup applesauce instead of oil.
  * Substitute 1 cup whole wheat for white flour.
  * Try adding a handful of raisins.
  * It's even better the second day.
