The recipes in this first volume…as well as future volumes…appeared in various cookbooks Nelda Moore Marmo created…or helped create…over a period of 40 years at Haltom City Church of the Nazarene in Haltom City, Texas. Some of the recipes were created on the fly by members just because they needed to bring something for an impromptu fellowship or potluck meal. Others are old family recipes that have been handed down from one generation to the next so that their special flavors won’t be lost. No matter where or how a recipe originated, there’s nothing like the joy of experiencing a new recipe with an interesting, intriguing or simply crazy name while wondering what the finished item is going to look like. But the one sure thing is that the result will taste good.
