Arwilda’s edits

Arwilda’s note: The original wording is obscured; the final visible text is “orange juice”. Crossed-out word replaced by orange written above before juice; original unreadable. Arwilda’s note: Changed “4 cups all purpose Flour” to “4 3/4 cups all purpose Flour”. Blue 3/4 added to original quantity. Arwilda’s note: Changed “crossed-out orange-juice word unreadable; drop-size word crossed out and replaced by teaspoonfuls” to “lemon crossed out and replaced by Orange; teaspoonfuls is not an edit”. Record ‘lemon’ as the original juice word, and remove the false drop-size edit. The long horizontal stroke in teaspoonfuls is the writer’s crossbar on the lowercase t.
