Barely a duplicate to be seen. There was also another table filled with plates of bars. Bowls of hot dish and plates of buns rounded out the meal. Yes a classic Minnesota Lutheran funeral meal. My favorite Ladies Aid cookbook has many jello salad recipes plus an entire section devoted to bars in addition to the one for cookies. It is a well used cookbook.
