Vintage Recipe Linky Party: Banana Fritters Recipe

In this day and age many, perhaps most people are concerned about health and staying slim. Yet more and more are becoming obese. We have TV shows like The Biggest Loser. It used to be that the "fat kid" in class was the odd ball. Today, those kids are the norm in our child's school. Isn't it odd that in earlier decades people could eat a Breakfast of Champions with cholesterol-laden eggs,

Vintage Recipe: Magic Coconut Orange Loaf Cake

Happy Thursday to all! It's time for more vintage recipes. I try to preserve these gems for another generation.

So whether you want to honor a loved one's recipe or give us a "what were they

Easy grape juice custard recipe or favorite juice custard

Welcome back to Vintage Recipe Thursday! Sometimes we need a quick and tasty recipe to serve just one person. It might be a quick snack for ourselves, or it might be for a child. This is exactly what I found in my vintage cookbook, and it can easily be doubled too. The grape juice made me think of back-to-school. It's a favorite of many children. Feel free to use just about any kind of juice. I

Chocolate Recipe: Raisin Nut Brownies

Welcome back to Vintage Recipe Thursday. This is the place to link up any older recipe. I post from a World War II cookbook, but recipes don't need to be that old. You could even post a recipe from the 1990s. You could post your mom's recipes, or grandparent's recipes. If you have old recipe postcards, that's great too. But please do not link your giveaways, sponsored posts, brand new recipes you

Caramel Ice Cream Recipe

Here's a recipe to help you (and me) beat the heat. I love to make homemade ice cream, and if you haven't tried it, you haven't realized how easy it is. It is much better tasting than most store-bought ice cream and much cheaper too. I love that I get to control the quality of my ingredients and try out all sorts of wonderful flavors I would not be able to buy from a brand.
