I actually really enjoy the "Better Homes New Cookbook"! My Mom gave it to me on my 18th birthday and it has been a loyal companion since then and has some of my favorite old standby recipes.

Other favorites:

The New Amish Cook
"Dinnertime" by Ree Drummond (the Pioneer Woman)
Treasured Amish and Mennonite Recipes
An old raggedy-assed cookbook from 1929 that belonged to my Great-Grandmother and that still has her handwriting in it!


What are your favorite cookbooks?!

i lost mine, but it was an index card box filed with cards of recipe's from my mamere' and my mother. The cards hand their handwritings on them..some were typed on a typewriter... . and my mamere' would jot down "a dab of ole"o or something else that only meant something to her.

This was a treasure that i hold dear in my memory.
