My grandmother cooked a lot of delicious Norwegian food like lefse and
pfeffernusse. My uncle makes lutefisk, which stinks to high Heaven.
I have yet to try it.

Fun! I actually have a hardbound edition of 'The Settlement Cookbook'.

One thing I love about these old cookbooks is their shameless advertising
In this book in particular, along with the usual ads for canned vegetables
and baking powder, there's Bunde & Upmeyer Co. Jewelers (watches,
diamonds!), Rich's Famous Julia Marlowe Shoes. (I have no idea who Julia
Marlowe is but in 1903 it must have meant something.) I suppose that's how
they paid for printing the book the first time around

I have a chafing dish cookbook somewhere. I probably still have a chafing
dish somewhere It's got some delightful hand drawn illustrations. I
believe it was printed in the 1920's. I love old cookbooks. They're fun!

Thanks a bunch for posting this. I love old CB's, for they contain a
lot of history and more than a little wisdom.
