Betty Crocker's Cook Book for Boys and Girls

This book was published in 1957.  It was my mom's, and I cooked with it as a child as well.  It's falling apart now!  It is apparently being re-printed for today's kids due to its popularity - but I think people will probably buy it more for the nostalgia factor than for the actual recipes.  :)  Anyone else have this one?

    1. I definitely used to use it when I was a kid but I have not used it with my daughter yet - maybe that might be a good project for this weekend! The recipes are very easy and kid-friendly - and some of them are definitely from a different era, haha! Thanks for checking out my blog!

  3. This book takes me back. My mom had this book and my sister and I used to make stuff out of it. It was a great book! I'll have to ask her if she still has it.
