My Grandma recently gave me her own Grandma’s recipe book. I’m scrambling to get the thing properly stored and documented but I thought some folks here would find it interesting as well.

The earliest written date is the note for “Jan. 4th, 1926”, and it also includes some pamphlets and newspaper cut outs from throughout the mid-1900’s. Definitely want to give some of these a try, though I may stay away from the endless number of jello and strange “salad” recipes. Excluding, of course, absolutely needing to try something from “Knox’s Dainty Desserts for Dainty People.”

Will update if there’s enough interest. Just wanted to share due to my sheer hype for this book.

    I just love some of those recipes & I want to try them so bad! I love how she didn’t need to write instructions; she just knew what to do! I’d love to see the rest of the Duchess pudding recipe, if possible.
