How many of you are familiar with this cooky book? It was published in 1963 and my mom used hers quite often as it is now quite tattered and torn. I ran across one at the Bargain Bazaar this spring and took some time to look it over with my morning coffee. The pages in mine are in excellent shape but the front and back cover are warped from being stored in humid conditions is my guess. Anyway, it was well worth the $1 I paid for it and I will continue to pick up any other copies that I run across as I think it's a great cookbook that has good nostalgic appeal. BTW, the Bargain Bazaar is moving in a couple of months!!! A building was donated to us, so no more rent! More on that later. Lots of work ahead though.
