The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

Before I start, the picture I shared is of an old cookbook at Joe’s cabin. I had not really opened it before but was drawn to it like a moth to light. So much fun to read something written over a 100 years ago. The recipes mention a moderate or a hot oven; of course no temperature and no time. What I was impressed with, besides the many household and medical suggestions, was recipes giving ideas on what to do with leftovers. Things change, yet they stay the same.

Do you have an old cookbook you still use? Would you like to me to share some of the information out of that old cookbook?
