Last Saturday our local library had its book sale and I scored a lot of cookbooks. Granted most of the stuff they had was quite old, but for $1 for hardcovers and 50-cents for softcovers, who can complain? Now I need a place to store all these books!
\nAnyway, I got a few spiral or home-bound books:
\n
\n-Traditional Quebec Cooking <\/b>by Micheline-Mongrain-Dontigny
\ncirca 1995
\n
\n-Authentic Indian-Mexican Recipes<\/b> by William Hardwick <\/b>
\na small pamphlet circa 1965 of recipes from the Rio Grande region
\n-Unusual Acadian Recipes for the sweet toogh<\/b> by Mercedes Vidrine
\nThese are cake & pastry recipes from the Acadians that settled in Louisiana, aka Cajuns
\n-The Romaian Way of Cooking<\/b> by The Geroy’s of St. Mary’s Romanian Orthodox Church in Ohio
\nReally, Romanian-american recipes, c. 1968
\n–Kauai Cookbook<\/b> by the Kekaha Parent-Teacher’s Association
\nc. 1959
\n–Recipes: The Cooking of the Caribbean Islands<\/b>
\na Time-Life publication
\nThough I have several Caribbean cookbooks, i got this one because it helpfully mentions what country each recipe comes from. Often times Caribbean cookbooks don’t.
\nI also got several books from the Time-Life “Foods of the World” collection circa 1968. These are all hard cover books. I got:
\n<\/p>\n

  • The cooking of Provincial France\n
  • The cooking of Vienna’s Empire\n
  • The cooking of Italy\n
  • The cooking of Scandinavia\n
  • Latin American cooking<\/b>
    \nand finally a couple of hardcover cookbooks
    \n-Russian Cookinb<\/b>
    \na translation of a Russian original circa 1974
    \n-The Balkans Cookbook<\/b> by Jugoslovenska Knjiga
    \ncirca 1987
    \nand finally:
    \nThe complete American Housewife – 1776<\/b> by Julianne Belote
    \nA book on colonnial cooking circa 1974
    \nNow it’s time for me to get cooking!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
