   9. A vintage recipe request from a reader:   
      
   As with collectibles, people also have very strong feelings about foods from   
   their past.  Sometimes these special recipes get lost. This section is to help   
   people who are looking for lost recipes from their past.  If you submit a   
   request, please include the geographical region where you tasted the recipe.   
   --   
   "I would like a recipe for a Peanut Butter Cream Pie. This is not the type   
   that is cold or made with cream cheese or whipping cream.  It is like a cooked   
   cream pie but I can not find a recipe anywhere on line that looks even   
   similar.  We used to go to an auction down in Tennessee and the church women   
   ran the lunch stand.  Every sale they all ways had these pies.  It was so well   
   liked that you had to reserve a piece if you wanted it for lunch!  Please can   
   someone help? Thanks, Carol S"   
   --   
   There were no responses to Susan O's request for a chicken and rice recipe.    
   Judy G is also looking for this recipe, so we're reposting the original   
   request:   
      
   "I had--and lost--a recipe a friend gave me in the early '70s. She called it   
   Chicken and Pilaf or Chicken and Rice Pilaf.  She got the recipe from her   
   mother who lived in the San Diego area.  She said she thought her mom got the   
   recipe from a magazine.  I remember a lot, but not enough.  You saut+¬ed rice   
   and broken vermicelli briefly; I seem to recall seasonings added to that   
   saut+¬.  The slightly browned rice and vermicelli then went into a casserole   
   dish and topped with raw chicken pieces (I used beasts).  The recipe called   
   for cream of mushroom soup and (maybe) cream of chicken soup or cream of   
   celery soup.  Some of the soup was poured over the ingredients in the   
   casserole which was then baked.  The rest of the soup was cooked on stovetop   
   with seasonings and a bit of sherry.  The stovetop sauce was served on the   
   side.  The sauce was brownish, but I can't remember what gave it that deeper   
   color.  I hope one of your readers can supply the recipe.  Thanks, all.  Susan
