Rita R. sent this request:

I am looking for a recipe from the mid-60s for popcorn balls. The recipe did
not use molasses or any dark syrup, it used mini marshmallows and light Karo
syrup.  The recipe was lost during one of our moves and we have not seen it
since.  My mom thought it was from one of the women's magazines of the time. 
I would truly appreciate finding it again.  Thanks.

My wife ran across this recipe the other day and it brought back may memories
for her of the Woolworth Drug store they use to go to.  She had to try it and
we all thought it was such a good one that I had to pass it on.  Hope your
readers enjoy it!  Jim H.  - Oregon
