I love to cook and I love cookbooks, in case you hadn't figured that out by reading this blog:-). A little while back, we were at a library used book sale and found a couple of wonderful treasures! Most of them were free on the discard table, including this quaint and nostalgic cookbook.
It has lovely pictures and is all handwritten (then copied , of course). There are recipes from around the world including the British Isles, China, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Scandinavia and America. It was published in 1951 and I think it is missing some pages in the back (no back cover), but a treasure it is!I haven't yet tried any of these recipes, but now that I got if off the shelf, I think I will browse and see what looks good! Don't forsake checking out the free tables at your local library's book sale - you never know what treasure you may find!
And check out The Daily Planet for The Homesteading Carnival with lots more ideas for cooking, saving and just great living!
