What a treasure of history and family life this is! Published by Crisco to highlight their new shortening product, these menus and recipes are easily adapted for today's healthier fats. And how much fun to read a year of meal ideas. Most are approachable and fun for today's cook, too (Ok, maybe not the Pressed Beef with Aspic, but still!).
