Vintage Recipe Journal

I made this page in one of the circle journal's I am participating in.  The topic was vintage recipe's and the Cosmo Cricket Early Bird line worked great for this!
I chose to do this 1953 Betty Crocker Old Fashioned Meatloaf recipe because it is the best Meatloaf ever!  I took a picture of it afterwards but decided not to put it on my page because Meatloaf just doesn't look appetizing, really it doesn't!  But it sure does taste GREAT!!
What is your favourite vintage recipe?  Did you love Julie and Julia?  I loved when she brought her some butter in the end!

Awesome ness...and yea, meatloaf is't the most appetizing of pictures! LOL
I love old school recipes, actually my fav cookbook is a REALLY old one from my great grandma. The recipes ae just SOOO easy! I mean, no rare ingredients I can only get in Chinatown or something!

Love the CC project! I can't do meatloaf at all..I suppose I should practice..my favorite vintage recipe is when my sisters bake these coffee cookies from my aunt's recipe. Haven't finished J & J; got it damaged and haven't re-rented it yet but it was pretty good the part I saw!

Your LO looks properly "old fashioned" - love the toaster. I can attest to the taste of this recipe as Carrie has served it to me - Yummie!

That is the cutest toaster. I couldn't believe you did that page at first, it just didn't seem like you. I think it shows how incredibly creative you are. Betty Crocker's 1969 cookbook is my favorite. The chocolate chip cookies are to die for. Julie and Julia was such a fabulous movie. I laughed so hard. Meryl S. rocked her role.

Chris said...

This is a really cool recipe book. I love vintage recipe books. I bought 5 one day at the thrift store and I can't wait to use them. I think I'll make copies of the best pages, first!
