Ahhh, Nostalgia...

 
A fun find this weekend...
this vintage children's cookbook.
First edition, 1955.
Practically perfect condition.
(Apparently the original owner didn't use it or this book would look like the shabby little kids cookbook that I loved as a child and is missing its front cover!)
Hmmm,I don't recall looking this put together when I was baking and I'm pretty sure neither one of my brothers wore a tie in the kitchen! 
 How about serving up a delicious grape float? Here's the recipe!

There are many fun old-fashioned recipes that I want to try again but one for "French-fried potatoes" under the Vegetables and Salads tab?  Smile

 I'm not a collector of cookbooks and I don't cook that much anymore, but looking forward to fun in the kitchen with the granddaughters!

Vintage Books

Great for adding height and interest to your tables, bookshelves, vignettes -- these "antique" books! We've enjoyed learning how to create these and finding just the right appropriately vintage books to cover using this special technique.

We'll be selling them at our spring events...the Funky Junk Antique Show held April 9 and 10 as well as our first "home" event for 2011 - the Angel's Attic Spring Open House on Saturday, April 30.
