This isn't the Fall cookbook I planned to buy
but it was a Goodwill find that I could not pass up!
It was written in 1951 by Heloise Frost
and illustrated by Ellen Nelson.
The front page says,
"Tested in the kitchen of a New England Housewife"
I can't wait to try some of the recipes!
And later that day I went by New Visions
and found these birthday candles!
Fairy candles....ahhhh!!
My day was complete!
Have a wonderful Friday!

Would you believe I have that same cookbook and a box of fairy candles too? I have never made anything from the cookbook, just enjoyed the beautiful artwork. If you make anything in it, let me know how you like it.
BTW, I did get my little acorns at Michael's.
Have a nice weekend.
I wouldn't have passed that book up either. The illustrations are beautiful. It will be fun to try out some of the recipes.

Well now ya gotta cook up a great cake or cupcakes and put candles on top! That's quite a haul you have there. That cookbook is something else! Not to mention the fairy candles.

What a beautiful book you found - the illustrations are wonderful. You certainly found some treaurers on you shopping trip.
Looks like your "girls" are having fun at their tea party. They look so real - hard to believe from the photograph that they are dolls.
Have a lovely week.
Blessings,
Erin
I have that cookbook! Isn't is beautiful! I first saw it on Gold Country Girl's blog and fell in love with it, then hunted for a copy on ebay for myself and then ran into one at a flea market! I'm so happy you found one, too! Those candles are adorable! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend! Twyla
