got one!

i finally found it. 

 i have been on the look out for this betty crocker cook book but they are crazy expensive, not sure why. 

 it is in really bad shape, but for a buck at a garage sale, what the heck i splurged.

as you can see it is what my friend denise calls

"well loved"  it was grama ruth's cookbook given to her by krissy in 1964.

 i am finding fun items in the cookbook that were added by ruth and makes this cookbook worth more than one of those expensive vintage ones. 

bonus! 

 the best-ever lemon pie recipe given to ann landers by a cab driver in new york.

love the photos.

huh?

a sweet little note from ruth.
