(could anything be more of a comfort food for a time of chaos that is pressing and depressing our financial markets and the political scene?.... let's just make a pan and eat it warm with butter.. let's just remember a simpler time and know that the ONE WHO created us is the One WHO makes the plans!)

HI! (from Aunt Linda... Nana's youngest sister, Eric's mom)
Well, we have signs of fall here (Huntsville, AL) so I made gingerbread. (Eric's favorite).
I've used Mimmie's recipe all of my life, and I wondered if you have it. It's
really wonderful.
She noted on my recipe card that it came from a White House
Cookbook. Anyway, here it is....enjoy;
Cream together 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup sugar.
Add 1 cup molasses,
1 tbs. ginger, &
1 tsp. cinnamon
Beat in 2 1/2 cup flour then
2 tsp. baking soda dissolved in 1 cup boiling
water.
Add 2 well-beaten eggs.
Bake in greased pan for 40-60 min at 350.
