Van Horn, the Crossroads community for our own Texas Mountain Trail, has its history determined by its location. Through time, it has always been a place travelers passed through...whether by foot, horseback, wagon, train, bicycle or automobile. It was also an important stop on the historic highways--the
Bankhead Highway and the Old Spanish Trail! (There will be a November 7th meeting in Van Horn about the Texas Historical Commission's Historic Highways project--specifically, the Bankhead Highway survey.

We found
this recipe from 1934 in a Van Horn Hospital Auxiliary cookbook, and wanted to share it with you!
