Hello my friends and followers…I wanted to take a second to let you all know I’ve not forgotten my responsibility as a food blogger. Tomorrow Miss T will graduate from high school and begin the next journey in her life. With a house full of company, a holiday weekend, a big reason to celebrate, food, laughter, family […]
Today I’m taking the vintage quest to New Mexico. I have a copy of a cook book named New Mexico Cookin’, published in 1976. Notice the cost was $1.29. I challenge you to find a new cookbook for so little money. This book came from the collection of my hubby’s great-aunt Esther. She was a very […]
Welcome! Today we are visiting vintage again. My Better Homes And Gardens Cook Book to be precise. This particular copy is the sixteenth printing, from August 1936. 76 years ago…wow!

With April being declared the month of sweets I don’t seem to be posting as often as I would like. The flip side to that thought is, I would have too many sweets covering the kitchen counter or the dining table and filling up my tummy.
I am not one to share my food, especially if it is sweet. Well, truthfully I don’t like to share my food ever! Not sure why. You know when you go to a restaurant and everyone orders differently, offering others a taste of what they ordered?
