You HAVE those cookbooks? Oh, my. Are the recipes bad, or just the pictures?
Yes, I'm afraid so. I use them - uh - now and then. I have one I use a lot from the BH & G series- the Canning and Preserves one. And the Gifts for the Holidays too. And, lol the Poultry one too. I have a lot of other really great cookbooks too, including "White Trash Cooking' which is a really cool one, especially fond of the pictures in it too, it has really good pics.
Yeah, the pics were an early representation of pictorial marketing?
