These drop cookies are so addictive! The fact that they are small makes them easy to pop in your mouth. (Unfortunately it makes them easier to eat by the handful, too!) They are from the 1942 edition of The New American Cook Book. Recipe is on my blog. Link’s in my bio.

This is this month’s menu. It’s from the September 1940 issue of Woman’s Day. If you head over to my blog, you can see this issue’s cover, too. Link’s in my bio.

Here is just one of the examples of 1941 hair tutorials that I have on my blog today. I am fascinated by how people dressed, accessorized, and wore their hair in the past, so step-by-step instructions like these are some of my favorite things. You can head over to my blog to see more. Link’s in my bio.

I have two hamburger recipes over on my blog today. Both are from 1941 and offer a unique twist on a common household staple. Link's in my bio.

Since this week brought us National Book Lover's Day, I thought I'd add a list of books that were published in 1940. It's been a while since I have done one of these lists, and this time I added children's books to the mix. You can see my entire list on my blog today. Link's in my bio. And, yes, Caps for Sale is on the list.

The American Woman’s Cook Book is one I find myself reaching for again and again. Since today is National Book Lovers Day, I’d love to hear what your favorite vintage cookbooks are. They don’t have to be from the 1940s. Any decade is fine. What are your favorites and why? Do you have a favorite recipe from them? I’d love to hear from you!
