This is a great little cookbook that my friend Michelle found at an antique store in the midwest and brought back for me. I can't find a copyright date on it, but I love it! The inside cover reads "Even before you cook with Spry your own eyes will tell you how superior it is to ordinary shortenings. Spry is so much whiter, glossier, and smoother. It looks so fresh and sweet, so inviting." I've never thought of shortening as inviting, but whatever.
Here is one of four roughs that will be done for a church cookbook. Let me know what I can improve. Thanks.
Someone gave me a vintage cookbook (for Crisco!) and this note was tucked inside. I thought it was charming.
The Victory Binding of the American Woman's Cook Book, Wartime Edition (1942). Looks suspiciously like Sandwich Loaf.
Este año algunas personas han recibido de los Reyes Magos unos cuadernos de recetas realizados por mí. Pueden ver más sobre ellos en mi web aquí.
Years ago I got this "make your own cookbook" for Christmas, probably around the time I was moving out on my own. Its a bit of a mess now but full of recipes. Some are from online, some from magazines but mainly they are recipes I grew up with like tonight's chicken stir-fry & plenty of hot dishes.
I went to el biblioteca to pick up "Are You There God, It's Me Margaret" for next book club. Of course, I can never leave the place without taking a stroll through the food section. Sometime, I plan to check out that 1080 Recipes (the spanish cooking bible). It would look so nice next to The Silver Spoon (its Italian counterpart).
I got this 4 new cookbooks in the mail today. They were dispatched from UK two days ago and they were expected for friday, so...it was a SUPER fast shipment!!!
These gift tags are made from repurposed manila file folders that have been collaged on one side with pages from the meat chapter of a vintage cookbook. The photos and recipes are classic retro and you'll receive a nice assortment of both. I enjoy seeking out old cookbooks at book sales and yard sales and love using them to make these tags!
They measure 2.75" x 1.75" and have a piece of bakers twine attached. Your tags will be packaged in a cello bag as shown in the last picture.
Great gift for people who love to bake or use them for gifts or party favors!
I was watching my Mom in her kitchen the other day, and just had to take a couple of shots of her cookbook. It's SO worn out. It's chock full of recipes she's cut out of magazines and written in her handwriting, sticking out of it all over the place.
I love it.
She bought it with points earned at the grocery store in the fifties.

From having no Japanese cookbooks before arriving in LA to owning four, and using Yasukosan's Fabulous Home-Cooking-that-makes-my-mouth-water as our online 5th source of recipes. Amazing...
These books remind me of my childhood. We didn't eat Japanese food at home, but the way we cooked was somewhat similar. Rice+soup and 2 or 3 other dishes, combining meat or fish with vegetables. Our dinner table was never very pretty, unlike a typical Japanese table, but it was tasty.
