Loved pouring over these Victorian era household manuals. Bakewell Tart seemed to be a favourite even then! Gorgeous books- they smelt lovely too !

tpixie Fun! Think of the women that first read them! 1y

Mitch @tpixie absolutely- they‘re real working documents with smudges and stains! 1y

LeahBergen I love these, too! 1y

I love these new postcards. I can see all my cookbooks having very smart new bookmarks / cards with adaptation notes!

Mitch @LeahBergen @Chrissyreadit There‘s some really great ones - I think we should have a revival of old style cookery book covers - I‘ll drop a line to Jamie Oliver and let him know! 2y

Mitch @AmyG there‘s some cool 1950‘s BBQ ones! 2y

Mitch @LitStephanie They‘re poking out of many books - marking my baking week ahead! 2y

Power food to finish off the flu. So wonderful...

"I must frankly own, that if I had known beforehand that this book would have cost me the labour which it has, I should never have been courageous enough to commenced it."
