ayrt You're right on there, haha. There's lots of horrible recipes like that in cookbooks from the 1950s. (Am I the only American here? Feels like you're all from the other side of the pond. xD)

Nope!

My mother grew up in America in the 50s, and her mother had a schedule for meals which repeated every week. Faced with such mediocrity, my mother never really learned how to cook, and I had to learn from scratch, essentially. I'm proudly a much better cook than either parent now. (My mother is a fantastic baker, though. Bread, cake, and cookies are traditions which survived the 50s intact. We made Lebkuchen from a recipe which survived from the old country!)

ayrt Yes to the baking! My mom was also a fantastic baker, despite having gone through some real deserts of culinary eras. xD The old Betty Crocker cookbook has a certain edition that's really good for baking in particular.

Another American here! You can occasionally ID us when we (mis)spell words like "flavor". xD

I think there are already more nonnies from America here than from anywhere else; people seem to post a lot around my 4am! 🌛
