We're cookin' up an especially delicious Aqua Blue Heaven Friday today! (That'll make more sense and be a lot more amusing in a minute. OK, it'll at least make sense. Amusing? Ehh, probably not so much.)
Today's vintage aqua treat is this Vintage Mid Century Recipe Binder, available on Etsy from seller Cocktails at Six:
How can you not love the kicky font of "Recipe Book"? (Notice how the "O's" in "Book" look like hard boiled eggs?! No, really. Do you see it?...How about now?) I know alot of my lovely readers are big fans of vintage kitchen stuff AND I know alot of you dig old-fashioned "tried and true" recipes. Me too! But you know what else I really love? I love when stuff comes with other stuff!...Oh come on, you do too know what I mean. I'll explain: Not only is this a pretty cute binder for holding your recipes and whatnot, but it comes with a few recipes attached inside already! See? Free stuff that comes with your stuff! It makes total sense now, I'm sure.
Observe! It comes with a recipe for "Rolled Molasses Cookies" (excuse me a moment while I busy entertaining myself with how it sounds like "rolled my ass". Carry on):
As a super spectacular added bonus, it even comes with a recipe for "Ham Loaf." You heard me: Ham. Loaf. I bet it has something jellied in it. You're welcome, I'm sure.

Gee, that is swell! And it really is like you get a bonus with the book :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI just made Ham. Loaf. last Sunday... for the record, there isn't anything jellied in it ;)
Reminiscent of my sweet grandmother's kitchen. Bless her heart. She's only updated the fridge and stove over the years but left everything else the same from 1952.
ReplyDeleteWell now I want it! You should have mentioned the ham loaf in the title. geez!
