Praise for the Cook Crisco Cookbook

Praise for the Cook, Procter & Gamble, 1959. I contacted the Procter & Gamble Company, but, sadly, they weren't able to tell me the name of the illustrator.
 What can I say? They just don't make vegetable shortening cookbooks like they used to.
 Where's the magic? The magic is in the can!
 Who DOESN'T want to snuggle that cat?

Test Post, Decidedly Too Long.


This is a test post. This is a blog. This is the internet. I drew a picture of me, but I only ever see myself in the mirror, so this is actually what I look like backwards. The drawing might lead you to believe that I am a boy, but in fact I am a girl. (A girl who occasionally, by the elderly and people far away, is mistaken for a boy.)
I am not what this blog is about, but this is a test post. The plan is this, though: to share my lovingly-hoarded-treasure-trove of vintage childrens' books. Probably some of my own doodlings will sneak in as well. This is too long for a test post. OVERANDOUT!
