Early American Cookery


Early American Cookery- Here's a few fun freebies I got on my "Dover" samplers email, from a book vendor, on early American cookery, and includes the illustration above and below at the bottom. It's a fascinating look at what our ancestors ate, cooked, and recycled! Talk about frugal!!!
