I'm looking for a recipe that was in The Bee in the late 1990s. It was for lasagna made with Morant's Italian sausage and buffalo mozzarella, among many other ingredients. I lost my copy; can someone help?

Bus stop chili: I am looking for a recipe for the chili served at Fresh Pond, a bus stop between Tahoe and Placerville. The business was run by George and Maxine Birch. Thank you.

Brittle, but soft: I have a very nice recipe for "hard" peanut brittle that I share at work every holiday. I swap samples of my brittle with a co-worker's "soft" brittle made by his wife from an old family recipe. He is sworn to secrecy. It is a much softer brittle, made with a lot of butter, and is not cooked like mine is. Does anyone know how to make this softer-styled brittle?

A delicious eclair: In the late 1960s, my aunt sent me a recipe that she cut out of the Parade magazine Sunday supplement for eclairs. It included the recipe for the pastry shell, filling and the most delicious chocolate topping. I have since lost the recipe and am wondering if anyone has it. Thank you.
