Vintage Cookbook: Better Homes and Gardens

My favorite cookbook of all time is definitely my Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook. I have an edition from the 1990s and I love it so much! I love the recipes and the tips and the fact that it is a binder style book. It is very easy to flip through it and find what I am looking for at any given moment.

A few weeks ago I was looking up old/vintage cookbooks on Ebay and I came across a wonderful, old edition of the Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook! I was so excited and I bought it right then-and-there. The cover is different from my current copy of the book. The book is a 1953 edition and is in great condition! It is very vintage styled and nostalgic. The pictures throughout the cookbook are wonderful and call from an older time. It makes me happy looking at them. The women in the picture cartoons are all wearing lovely aprons!

Just wanted to share my find with you!

Bread...Yum

Hello everyone! I just wanted to make a quick post on my breadmaking last week. I love to bake bread! I love the whole process...but I sure do love to eat it! I baked three loaves of bread a couple of days ago. I use a recipe my grandpa gave me from the internet. I will post it sometime so you can see it. I used half white and half wheat flour, as well as wheat germ, and oat bran. It tastes so delicious and always turns out well. I definitely recommend giving breadbaking a try if you haven't already. It is fun to make and is even better to eat! :) I do not have an electric mixer or a bread machine, so I have to do it the old fashioned way. I mix everything by hand (it sure is a work-out) and then I let the yeast rise twice and then bake it in the oven in bread pans.
