Thank you Mr. Cooking the Books for buying your wife a camera and (kindly) pressuring her to make videos! I'm a newer subscriber, but this channel has become what I put on when I want to relax and "hang out" with a friend. It's now part of my Comfortube playlist.
Yes! Thanks to Mr Cooking the Books! Well put!
Agree too 💯% ❤
I have relayed your thanks to Mr. Cooking the Books. 😂 Thank you so much for watching! Happy to hear you find my videos relaxing.
Wholeheartedly second all of this!
Awwwww. That's sweet, Butter pecan❤
I am 71 years old and your videos transport me back in time to my mother, grandmother and aunt's kitchens. Delightful memories. Thank you.
I love this! Thank you so much for watching. ❤
I totally am on the same page as you are, Nancy!
I must say you are a TH-cam “It Girl”. There are a lot of people who post cooking videos and even quite a few that post vintage cooking videos but you are a natural in front of the camera and your beautiful personality shines through. I’m glad your husband bought you that camera now we all get to enjoy you. I predict your channel will grow quite large just because of the “IT” factor, thanks for all the videos they are a treat.
Oh thank you so much for your kind words! ❤
I started watching Tasting History with Max Miller when he had 15k. His channel grew quickly. Now he has over a million subs and his channel grew fast. I hope that Mrs Cooking's channel grows that big and fast.
The thing I love about your videos is your lack of pretense. You are honestly interested in the recipe, how it might work, and how you see a fail coming. When I first started watching I thought you might be a librarian! Your love of cookbooks is so obvious. You do a great job and I look forward to each video!
Oh thank you so much! I decided pretty early on that my channel was not going to be about making the BEST recipe for this or that. Not my style. 😂 I really enjoy trying new things to see if they work. I've discovered some fantastic recipes along the way!
I actually guessed that @CookingtheBooks was an accountant, lol!
Amen to that! You are so genuine and just a hoot, Anna!
Congratulations on 10K and surviving the tuna mold ring. You’re an absolute gem here on the Internet.
Thank you so much! 😊
She's almost at 15k !!
Now she is at over 16k. Congrats!!
I made a "salmon mousse" which contained gelatin - I even bought a special fish-shaped mould to make it in. I served it as a starter. It was yummy, and looked lovely on the dinner table!
She is my pretend bestie.
Trust the Tupperware, Anna! Trust the Tupperware! The seal holds, and the two-piece aspect makes release really easy. 😊
The magic of Tupperware! 😂
I have my grandma's tupperware jello mold, it doesn't have the center bundt it has a center that has interchangeable discs, one is a christmas tree, a turkey, a heart and a flower. I don't know if there were other ones. I actually want to make this😅. I make a vegetable lime jello that most people in my family like and sunshine jello that has carrots in it.
I love the tupperware measuring cups and spoons. My mom had those when I was little.
I have that exact same mold. I bought it back when it was new, and used it to make ice molds for punchbowls at parties.@@cooking_the_books
I dressed as Betty Crocker one Halloween. My husband was Mr Clean.
Oh wow that is a GREAT combination!
Those are awesome costume choices!!
We lost our 18-year-old cat about a month ago and everything you said about your dog resonates with me so much.
Very sorry for your loss. ❤ It's so incredibly hard.
@@cooking_the_booksIt's a loss that people who don't have pets can't fully understand. You're never ready to say goodbye. ❤
I was crying with you. Hold on to the love you and Dottie shared.
Sorry for your loss. We lost a 17 year old and 18 year old kitty last year, very close together. Miss them so much
I started my very own, albeit tiny, collection of vintage cookbooks BECAUSE of you and your channel.
That's awesome!! So glad you found inspiration from my channel. 😊
I absolutely love how good natured and respectful you are of recipes that aren’t appealing to you (or me) but could be to another person. You are kind, positive, and encouraging, and I don’t think we have enough of that in the world.
I came for a recipe and stayed because of your personality. Sometimes I actually laugh out loud at some of your little comments. Congratulations on your achievement!
Oh thank you so much! Sometimes I can't help but say how I feel in the moment...and it's definitely gotten me in trouble at times. 😂
I love the way you talk about Betty Crocker as if she is real and I always assumed you knew she wasn't...lol. The Santa Claus comparison in spot on. I also collect vintage sewing books and paid $30 for one (and happy to pay it) through an online used book store. Then a couple weeks later, at an estate sale, found the same book, in better condition, for $1.00!! Definitely more exciting to find them in the wild. Congrats on your continuing growing channel...so entertaining.
Thank you! It never even occurred to me that people would think I didn't know about Betty Crocker. Imagine my surprise when I started getting comments about it! 😂
@@cooking_the_booksit says a lot more about those people than it does you! 😂
Absolutely! The joy of finding treasures in 'in the wild'.
So, trick from another "I don't like crunchy onions or celery" person: grate the onion on either the smaller side of the box grater or on the zester side of the box grater. And you can get the flavor of celery without the texture by adding a pinch of ground celery seed.
My last dog lived to be about 17; she was a rescue at 3-4 years old and we had her for 13 1/2 years. She finally became so arthritic and confused (chronic vestibular syndrome, which is like "dog Alzheimer's") that nothing could make her comfortable and we had to let her go. It's been 12 years and we still miss her. We were lucky to have her that long and that she was like a young dog until the last 6-8 months. It's never enough time.
I applaud you for bravely making and eating a tuna flavored gelatin mold. 😖 As you were unmolding it, I was yelling "break the seal in the center". I don't care for gelatin salads but I still have my mom's Tupperware mold, exactly like that. As far as I'm concerned, Betty is an icon. She's like Tinkerbell, she IS real, if you believe. Watching your videos has made me dig out all my cookbooks to revisit them. I have many of the $.39 cookbooks as well that were my mom's. Dottie looked like a sweet girl. It's so hard to lose our furbabies. You gave her a good life, she will always love you for that.
Congratulations 🎉 Anna! I was so excited when I heard the release of the mold. Thanks for the Q and A. I'm sorry about Dottie. You're right, we never have enough time with our beloved pets.
Thank you. ❤
I'm so sorry you had to say goodbye to Dottie. She was adorable! It's never easy. Big hugs!
Congratulations! You’ve hit 10K and shot right past!
I felt your pain when you talked about Dottie. Been there too many times. My heart goes out to you.
Thank you!❤️
Your story about Dottie. Oh man. I just lost my 15 year old little guy. His name was Pio De Jesus Pico, Last Governor of California Under Mexican Rule. (Chihuahua Rat Terrier Mix) about a month ago. My heart broke into a billion pieces. Dogs really bring so much to our lives. I enjoyed seeing Dottie in your earlier videos, and I can tell she was a very well loved and sweet girl.
My wife recently passed away a couple years ago about. two years ago. and she did all the cooking I worked two jobs my whole life. I'm in my 50s. and I never really learned how to cook. I want to say thank you for putting on these videos. I find it relaxing to watch your video. Read your recipes. Hence I'm learning how to cook. I have to say my grandma used to make this jello ring. and it was really good. I think she used lemon jello, though. I could be wrong. but I always wondered how she made it. So thank you for this video. It's very nostalgic. I appreciate everything you do. God bless and thank you for the great meals.
When my sister & I were young, my mom made plain tuna in tomato aspic. No one would eat it, so we teased her about it. Well, she got mad & forced us to eat a big helping. I still remember watching 'Mr. Ed' & choking down tuna jello! I have the same mold w/removable center--it makes the release kind of magical.
I like to think Betty Crocker was real *in a way*. She is an amalgamation of all those women in the test kitchen and on the radio show.
You are the BEST! I’m getting on people’s nerves by insisting they watch you. Thank you for such a fun group of videos.
So sorry for your loss! 🐶 🙏🏻 Congratulations on reaching 10 thousand subs! I always look forward to seeing your new videos pop up. 🙂
Thank you so much. I appreciate your support!
Our fur babies are family members. ❤❤❤ always remember she lived her best life with you.
Oh you poor thing. I asked my 80 year old Mum did Australia have the Jello Salad and she said no thank Goodness. You are a brave woman to try it. You will need to out di yourself when you reach 60k
Bless you! You are such a dear soul and it is a privilege to watch your videos! You remind me of myself when I'm in the kitchen.. a messy funny klutz! 😊❤ I certainly teared up when you spoke of Dottie, my dear cat of 11 years passed away a couple weeks ago suddenly, I like you have no kids and our pets are our kids. ❤🌈. But here's to many more subscribers!
So sorry about the sudden lost of your kittie. Saw your post on Anna's video. I'm a kittie mom.
@@melissalambert7615 oh you're so sweet. Thank you for that my fellow Kitty mom 💕
Thank you. ❤ and so very sorry for your loss. It's incredibly hard.
I love dogs more than most people. I grew up with them and had them my whole life. It brought tears to my eyes listening about Dottie. I loved seeing the Dottie breaks. I know exactly what you went through and how you feel. There’s nothing harder than losing a loyal friend who is literally with you 24/7. They leave the biggest imprint on your life and the biggest loss when they are no longer with us. No amount of time is ever long enough to have them-that’s the hardest part of having a fur baby. God Bless Dottie and you for loving her and giving her a wonderful 16 years. She was so beautiful. ❤🐾🌈
Thank You 🥹
I’m 70. In my childhood house, we kids ate tuna mold ONLY spread on saltines. Adults ate it on a lettuce leaf. Once I left home, I never had it again!
I'm so sorry about Dottie, she was a cutie. My cat Kitt, my best friend for the last 13 years, passed away on the 5th of this month at age 17. He moved with me from Dallas to Austin and back, to Western Kentucky, and here outside of Tulsa. You're right, it's never long enough with them. It sucks. But cheers to the good times!
My mother’s women’s group at church had potlucks. I have eaten this; my favorite is the lime jello, mayonnaise, pineapple, cottage cheese and I think nuts jello salad. I love your videos and your channel.
Oh I think I could go for the lime jello & cottage cheese version! Sounds like a great combo. Thank you for watching!
Me too !! Loved it!
Great vid Anna ! Enjoy many of the same interests as you - and you have such an enjoyable format to relate them! Dotty was a dream and her participation was a plus. ❤️ Continued success! 🎉🎉
@pammienakh Thank you!
Hubby is watching this over my shoulder and as you are stalling before eating he says "if that hits our table .... we are going to sonic" OMG I am dying laughing.....
😂
I'm so sorry about Dottie. She was beautiful and I loved your 'Dottie breaks'. She was so cute, with her one ear flopping down.
So sorry about Dottie. I’ve been watching your old videos and I didn’t realize she was gone. It is so hard to lose our furry family. I lost one of my cats to cancer a year ago and I still struggle with it sometimes. 😢
Oh my goodness I havnt even watched yet!!---but the picture of the TUNA RING!
I applaud you SOOOO much!! I think my favorite bit of dialogue was, "this is pretty low stakes"... I, literally, laughed out-loud!
Thank you for being there and cheering me on from the very start of my channel! ❤
I've been subscribed for less than a year, I've watched some of your older videos and always loved your Dottie segments. I really love dogs (and I don't currently have a dog) and I have a cat named Dottie. Thanks for all your cooking!!
Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear aprons!
Iam so sorry for your loss RIP Miss Dottin
Thank you. ❤
I'm just catching up! You are just a delightful young lady! I love to watch you and hear you giggle at little things. You have a very relaxing way about you. Thank you! Keep up the good work! Oh! BTW: I'm born in 1964, raised in the 70s and teen and young adult in the 80s. I love to see these decades and anything before!!
She is solid...hahahahaha.. loved that. But I watched the whole video, and when you talked about keeping your positive comments in a folder and you read them when you have a bad day. I related. I look at my scrapbooks all the time, the trips I have documented the places I have been, people say to me "you scrapbook oh that sounds like a waste of time and money". But they bring me such joy...I always wanted to teach scrapbooking on youtube but feel like no one will watch or everyone will leave bad comments, don't think I can handle that rejection. I love watching you cook these old strange recipes and you eat them, it fascinates me, I love cook books so I am here for the long run, keep up the good work! I will be watching and waiting for the next big fancy recipe!!!
Lol, when I’m cooking with Betty, I talk to her. Like, geesh Betty, what were you thinking. I’ve always replaced her books when I’ve worn them out. Thanks for being real.
Exactly! See, you get it. Betty had some uh...interesting ideas!
I want to let you know I really enjoy your cooking. I love vintage cooking.
Thank you for sharing your love of cooking.
That is the beauty of Tupperware gelatin molds, crack open that seal and ploop.😅
Seriously SO satisfying!
Lets here it for thrift store aprons!!!!!
I'm sorry about Dottie. I hope you feel better soon. Grief with pets can be deep.
I have been watching and enjoying your videos for the past few months. I'm in Southern Ohio. I loved seeing Dottie in the videos and am heartbroken to hear if her passing. She was just adorable. I am an animal lover and inherited my mother's dogs as well as my aunt's dog before/when they passed. Since then i have lost several of them. You're correct. No matter how long they live, it's never long enough. Sorry for your loss and thank you for sharing the wonderful Dottie with us.❤
New subscriber here…. LOVE your energy - love your channel - love how real you are & adore your laugh and smile. From one furry family to another, so sorry for your loss… although new to the channel, loved seeing Dottie breaks. Thank you for your content.
And by the way, I think Betty Crocker is real…. Just like Santa! 😉
Oh thank you so much! And so glad you understand the way I like to think of Betty Crocker. ☺
Heres too a 100k subscribers. One of my favorite channels.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭. You’re right we never have enough time with our beloved pets. My dog was almost 17 when I had to put her down. She has been gone for six years but I still miss her so much. You’re girl Dottie was a cutey. It’s OK to be emotional about it even after a year has gone by it shows that you loved your girl very much. ❤
Thank you. ❤
@@cooking_the_books your welcome 🙂
By the way I’m super super sorry about the loss of Miss Dottie 😢 losing a pet is a terrible terrible thing one of the most horrible feelings in the world!!! All my pets right now are getting up there our cat is 14 and the other is 7 then the dogs are 12 and 11 we just lost our rat Zen last year it was horrible it never gets easier… pictures talking about them and just knowing you gave them all the love in the world and receiving their love is the best… just know you did the very best thing you could for her … very selfless and beautiful ❤
I cant believe anyone thought you didnt know betty was made up! That is sooo funny! Its clear you are tongue in cheek when taking to betty😍😂
Hugs to you and your family losing a dog is so hard.
This is wonderful!!!!! 💟☮️💟☮️💟💟💟💟
Oh mu gosh I wasn't expecting the news about Dottie. I love cuts to her. She was obviously a happy puppy and it shows that you made the best life for her. Love to you for that!
I love the word: gelatinous. A friend of mine once described that as what chicken feet taste like.
My parents were married in 1960 and us kids were born in the late 60’s to early 70’s. My mom was devoted to her both sweet and savory gelatin molds. Tomato Aspic with Tuna was her favorite…
Tripped over your channel, so much fun! I have several of those cookbooks, I don't use them as much as I used to, but I can't let go of them! I especially loved your video of the Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. I have the one my aunt gave me as a wedding gift in 1968, and when my mom passed I inherited hers from the 1950s. Both are still precious. I laughed at the cheese bun-ees, I never could bring myself to try it. I'm 72, your channel keeps me young!
So sorry about the loss of sweetie Dottie. That heartbreak is rough. ♥️
I'm so sorry about Dottie. I understand your grief. ❤
Wow, your story about Dottie really resonated with me-- I had a 16 year old dog, my absolute constant companion, his name was Horus. He also developed seizures in the last year of his life, went through huge temperament changes, and I eventually had to make the hard decision too.. .I've never gotten over that.
Also, ain't nothin' wrong with celery!!
I’m catching up on your past episodes-I love them!! I miss seeing Dottie! Thank you for sharing her with us❤
So sorry to hear about Dottie. I feel your grief. I lost my dog, it was year in July and I still cry thinking about him. Then in May I lost my cat who had kidney disease, and we tried to keep her longer, but it was her time. It’s never easy as they bring us love, joy and the best companionship. Watching you has me going through my old cookbooks and finding joy in them again as in recent years I just google recipes. I was able to reclaim that enjoyment that I had going through the pages. Plus you are just fun to watch. Love your enthusiasm. Congratulations 🎉
Thank you! ❤ and I'm so sorry for your loss. It's so incredibly difficult.
OK, I discovered you about 8 months ago, and after the first video, I did, OF COURSE, subscribe. One thing I loved was that you are so real. Julia Child made mistakes, and kept on truckin'. You do too! I hate to go there, but I must. I miss Dottie. We had to put down our Lizzie (Borden) a year ago. She started having seizures, so I relate to your situation. She was with us for 15 years, and I "hear" her still today. I feel your pain, Anna. SO...don't make any more gelatin molds! (Kinda sounds like an Aspic?) Love you, and keep on truckin'!!!
I know it’s not a cook book but, sunset magazine is what my mom got a lot of recipes from. Sh3 was born 1929. Her mom was NOT a cook. My mom was a single mom and worked to jobs. She would try recipes from magazines and back of boxes and cans. 🤷♀️
Ana-I just wanted to say that you have been so inspiring to me to try new things and to collect old things. I watched just one of your videos and you got me hooked on the vintage vibe and I’ve begun collecting vintage cookbooks myself. I joined a few Facebook groups where I can buy them-I’ve net so many wonderful ladies because of your inspiration. I watch a video (at least one, many times more!) every day-you’re part of my morning routine. Thank you for your unique content and your love for cookbooks and cooking. Your sweet Dottie is always with you-our furry family members never truly leave us. Thank you for it all!
Thank you. ❤
Put this in your folder...I think you're GREAT!!!
What do you mean Betty's not real?🤯
I watched for the warmth and humor of you, I subscribed to see more of Dottie. I just loved the humor in her name and that made me feel like I wanted to spend time with you. I love your videos.
I don't use recipes often, but when I do, it's because I find one that intrigues me. "Wonder how this will turn out? What will it look like? What will it taste like?" You seem to pick recipes the same way. Also, TH-cam says this video was posted 1 month ago and you were celebrating 10,000 subscribers. Now, one month later, you are almost at 30K. Congratulations!
I love making tuna casserole for breakfast, or tuna sandwiches. But I just learned about tuna in oil, wow, way better!!! tuna, pasta, cream of celery soup,milk and cheddar cheese. bake and eat! comfort food!!
I’m crying here. We had to make the choice to let our Bella finally rest after 14 years of love and joy. It’s been a year and I still cry. When I felt her heart stop, mine truly froze and I lost a part of me. I once went back into our burning house to save her she was our baby.
Thank you , I love your channel,and your brave there’s no way I would eat that….lol😊
You’re so calm, I love it. On my end it says you posted this just 3 weeks ago and as of today you are at 25k!!! So happy for you, love the videos!
My grandma had a savory mayonnaise gelatin mold recipe made with cucumber and onion that she topped with chopped boiled egg. It presented so pretty, and was delicious and refreshing. I imagine your tuna mold would be just as lovely with an egg topped presentation.
Grandma’s Cucumber Salad Gelatin Mold - She called it “Crown Salad”- Mix 1 pk. Unflavored gelatin, 2 T. Sugar, ¾ t. salt, and 4 T. lemon juice. Once mixed, add 2/3 c. boiling water, mix until all is dissolved. Next add 2 c. (of well drained, peeled & deseeded) shredded cucumber, ¼ c. drained shredded onion, ¼ c. chopped parsley and mix well. Add 1 c. mayonnaise and mix until well blended. Pour in mold. Refrigerate until it is set. Once set, release onto a serving plate and garnish with 4 shredded boiled eggs and just enough parsley to add color.
Not gonna lie when I first clicked on your videos I was confident that you were going to have an Irish accent
Oh sweet Dottie , Im so sorry ! She was a beauty 😊
I am grateful I wasn't around for this era but find your videos very entertaining.
Omgosh, I just found your channel…OBSESSED! You inspired me to get find the Betty Crocker Recipe Box! I lost my mom 3 years ago, and she had this when I was a kid!!! My mom never cooked, and we were an ingredient only household,so I spent a large part of my childhood looking and drooling over these cards! I’m going to make some of the recipes I looked at as a child with my granddaughter. Thank you for the memories and inspiration. Also, I’m a huge dog person, I’m so sorry for the loss of your beloved Dottie. ❤
Thank you. ❤ The recipe card library is SO much fun! If you haven't already, check out the channel @UnboxingBetty. She's cooking her way through the entire thing!
❤❤❤ Dottie❤❤❤
Another terrific video, Anna! I couldnt help but giggle at your dubious face and slight shudder when you bit into that bite of celery! I'm sorry there are those who have been unkind about your videos, I love your positive response. Please take comfort and be assured that there aresome of us watching who look forward to sharing part of our Sunday evenings with you! Keep being you!!!
Thank you so much for your kind words! That CRUNCH of the celery...I really just couldn't hide my feelings. 😂
A pet that will last as long as you is a parrot.
Aww Dottie was so loved 💝
Good you discovered the secret to Tupperware jello molds. I was just getting to tell you offline (i.e. armchair quarterbacking) when you suddenly asked. No hot water needed, no oil needed. Just burp that baby and go. Another fun video. I have a delicious tuna and tomato soup recipe I can find buried somewhere that I can share. Ought to make your day. LOL but it is absolutely delicious.
I love making recipes from old cook books. I have a reproduction of an 1871 that i have made a few things from. I actually am making this recipe thanks to you. It is similar to my tuna pasta salad (minus the evaporated milk and gelatin.) So i made the following changes- i added a bit of sugar, reduced the lemon juice by half and I used drained relish instead of olives. It tasted a bit more milky but otherwise just like my tuna pasta salad without noodles.
My mom always said she was using her "Aunt Betty's" recipe when using anything Betty Crocker. 😂
Oh my gosh, I love this! 😄
If you’d like any books from the UK let me know, we have some real shockers 😅 I used to try to make some of the stuff as a kid as those were current books at the time. Nothing in them resembled any food I’ve ever eaten, lol, lots of those gelatine mould thingies 😂
Thank you for sharing about Dottie, we your viewers loved her!! And thank you for talking to Betty Crocker in your videos, I think you have said, "trust Betty" when it looks questionable. I find myself now saying that, too. I love thinking about her like Santa. And I think about the women in the test kitchens and Better Homes and Gardens test kitchen, I wish we had a documentary. I got some lovely finds In The Wild recently, and I was thi by, "I wish Anna was her,I'm so excited!"
I love a good jello mold. My mom still has that EXACT green mold in her kitchen. I grew up in the 70s/80s so never a buffet table existed without some kind of jello mold. They are glorious and missed. That center ring is begging for a lovely cucumber salad with dill fronds and parsley.
I found the better homes and garden cookbook from 1968-1972 Ring binder with tabs I think it is the one my mom had the tabs had a list or were right in front of the list of recipes. I think it is the best cookbook ever as far as layout and plenty of content is concerned. I hope it's the one I remember.
Our little dog Roy is 22 years old, and was active and spry until recently. He's not in pain, but getting very wobbly and pacing a lot. So I'm right there with you on how hard it's going to be to say goodbye, likely soon.
OH Roy sounds wonderful. ❤My heart goes out to you.
I’m so sorry you had to say goodbye to Dottie. But she had a great life!
I love your videos! ❤❤
The very first video of yours that I watched was from the BC cookbook 1950. I quickly looked that version up and put the cookbook in my Amazon gift list that is shared with my family. My daughter bought it for me for my birthday. ❤ So now when I enjoy my cookbook I think of yes, my daughter but also you and how much I enjoy your channel.
This is so wonderful. The picture cookbook is fantastic! Have fun!
Ohh by the way APS to my last post. My grandma used to tell me. that Betty Crocker put books. and the others that are kind of like it were. put out by what she called the big box stores. They are general recipes. with base ingredients. And that was so it was so it would appeal to the masses. Kind of like how when you go to the hospital everything is cooked bland. and you can dress it up with salt, pepper and everything. to the personal Individual I don't know how true that is. But according to my grandma, A lot of her recipes started off with. those books were. books like them. And she dressed them up the way she liked them. Like I said, that came from my grandma. And she was born in 1902. She's passed away. But I did get a couple of her cookbooks. and the big Betty Crocker. Red and white checkered one was her favorite.
Love your channel, it's like comfort food from a bygone era.
You are the ripest, juiciest peach, period! 😂
I am so sorry to hear about Dottie - I loved watching her sniff and explore on your walks with her. I have fond memories of the cookbooks and recipes you’ve featured, so please know that you bring so much joy to all of us. Happy Thanksgiving to you.
Love how you tried so hard to remain positive with this recipe! 😂 Congrats to you on 10000 + subscribers!
Thank you!! 😊 I do try to keep in mind that my tastes are different than someone else's and that maybe they LOVE this dish. We like what we like, and that's ok!
Great that you’re open to trying many different foods! I have seen so many of these savory gelatin molds in older cookbooks and I have to say they kinda scare me. 🤭It was interesting to see you prepare and try one. 😊and oddly satisfying to hear the release from the container!
I came to your channel through Jen Chapin. You and Jen are my 2 people that love vintage cookbooks! I have cookbooks from grandmas, my mom and my collecting. I love to pour over them. It’s fun to see other people that enjoy them as much as I do. Added comment….I went to a presentation on the history of women’s aprons. Now I’m more interested in vintage aprons than I was before.
Oh thank you so much!! That apron presentation sounds amazing to me! 😍
So for 20,000. You need to make chocolate cake. You deserve it!
