I mentioned that Twain references food often his works, but I wasn't sure if he have any "complete" recipe of a dish or a drink in any of his letters, books, or notebooks. These would be recipes that have measurements and instructions. I gave her the 1874 letter to Livy that contains the ingredients of one of Twain's favorite drinks, but there are n= o measurements. Let me know if you any references that I could send my colleague. Best, Ben
