True dat. I got my other grandmothers cast iron cookware, saladmaster stainless cookware and a nice kitchen aid food processor. My other cousin was more interested in the shiny sparkly stuff. The stuff I got gets used every single day. She was afraid it looked a little too much like work and was more than happy for me to have what I got. Sucker!
I got the cookbook (held together with paperclips and tape) she had from her 1933 home-ec class complete with the markups she’d put in it then and through the years. And her Betty Crocker cookbook. And a cookbook that had been my great grandmothers as well. That one is copyright 1902. I was the only one that wanted ‘a bunch of old books’.
High five to you and the cookbook memories.
Snicker at the suckers who can’t touch and hold the family history.
