I got the Betty Crocker one from 1969/1976. This appears to be the same one
that I used to have but has a different spine on it. So it will take much
much less room in my closet. Whoever had it didn't appear to have used it at
all. Almost as good as new but the pages are a tad crispy from age.

I think this is going to work out well. I see many meat recipes that look
like they will work for us. I really didn't pay much attention to meat
recipes when I had it prior because I was a vegetarian then. I also see
some things that I had forgotten about like Buttons and Bows which is an
easy recipe for sweetened biscuits.

So... Very happy!
