Arwilda’s edits

Arwilda’s note: Crossed out “graham muffins;” with no readable replacement. Brown diagonal strokes appear to cross out the typed words “graham muffins;”; no replacement is visible. Arwilda’s note: The original wording is obscured; the final visible text is “Deletion: originalText ‘fl’; finalText null; appliesTo the corn-meal ingredient.”. Apply the visually verified edit correction.

Needs review

Uncertain muffin variation edit: Strokes over “graham muffins;” appear to be a deletion, but their intended scope is unclear because following substitution and muffin-tin directions remain visible. Candidates: “Deletion of “graham muffins;” only”, “Marking not intended as a recipe edit”.
