I was just tall enough to work at the kitchen counters. And, having a ring binder cookbook was cool.

The funniest (and practical) cookbook was given to me by my apartment roomie just before I left to get married.

Mine even has a nice picture of how a table should be set. I referred to that for years each time we hosted a dinner party. I do love a great cookbook!Sylvestermousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13690700963857028874noreply@blogger.com
