Thursday's Thoughts, Cookbooks

Cookbooks..... Make me weak in the knees...  Love Them!

My mom is a great cook and like most of the women in our family,

didn't get many opportunities to cook outside the realm of 

meat and potatoes.  Fried stake, Fried potatoes.

What's not to like?

Of course no newly wed of my generation would think of starting 

her marital bliss without the traditional Better Homes and 

Betty Crocker's newest additions.

Santa even brings Daughter Dawn and I a new cookbook

every Christmas.  This is my new one.

Mmmmmm................  Bacon

Martha improved my pie baking and pie crust.

"It's A Good Thing"

 Cookbooks have taken some real twist and turns over the years.

I've donated my share of bad ones to the Salvation Army.

About ten years age, Cookbooks turned back to the basics.

Finally!  real cooking, with real food !!!

Here are my old and new favotites.

It's still meat and potatoes and

"Man are they good!"

;D
