Yesterday, for dinner, I served Quiche Lorraine.  Everybody enjoyed the quiche, even my son Peter who had not eaten quiche before and seemed skeptical of it.

My mother had two recipes for Quiche Lorraine.  One was written in her handwriting on a recipe card of hers.  The other recipe came from the Lloyd Harbor Elementary School Cookbook. The recipe I made was a combination of the two recipes.
