Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing. My husband occasionally brings home a new to me, old cookbook or gardening book, and it's fascinating to read the thoughts of the day from one hundred years ago. We may have more conveniences, but we've also complicated the heck out of a lot of things that could be and should be quite simple. The cookbook idea is definitely a good one.

I have to spend some more time as there's so much to look at. All your food creations remind me of the work Joey Randall does on her blog, The Village Voice, http://joeyrandall.blogspot.com. Cookbooks are a favorite of mine. The vintage ones are special. The very old White House Cookbook which has been reprinted is interesting. I collect lots of the little church/social group type local cookbooks because every once in a while you get a recipe that is special that you can't find any place else. My son, Alex is on the autism spectrum and he likes to cook with us. We are considering a cookbook with old fashioned recipes, good recipes, easy recipes where the plate is empty soon because the food is tasty. If we write it, we're planning on some biographical sketches of the person we get the recipe from. Just an idea.

We always had that on hand for the stomach ailments. We also drank Bendaryl out of a giant glass bottle when we had hives (I had those for a couple of years off and on). No citrus in the cake, they look like a take on a sponge cake. That’s right, Kim, wasn’t that called Syrup of Ipecac? We always had that on hand for the stomach ailments.
