I am a dairy farm wife who has
been involved in dairy promotion
as the mother of two county dairy
princesses. With the public becom
ing very cautious of their weight,
we adapted a favorite punch recipe
that Nancy used when she was
York County Dairy Princess in
1982. It is a low calorie version
that we used when our daughter
Susan was 1988-89 York County
Dairy Princess.
