Mrs. Wernle said: “This recipe was given to me by Annie Crum Leavenworth when we were cohostesses for a Wabash Avenue Presbyterian Church Circle Luncheon.  It has been a family favorite.  Mrs. Leavenworth was the wife of Clarence Leavenworth, long-time French professor at Wabash College.  She also taught at the college and was the author of a book of poetry called Wild Geese and Other Poems.
