    Some people used to make soda bread and the ingredients they used were flour, salt, soda and they would wet it with butter milk and they would bake it in a hot oven and they would put the sign of the cross on it to keep it from cracking.

    On Shrove Tuesday night there were pancakes made a bride's cake for a wedding party and a currant cake for Sunday.
