Hi Dave,


 DD> I'll bet you'd like this one: "THE UNITED STATES REGIONAL COOK BOOK
 DD> (10 Cook Books in 1: New England, Southern, Pennsylvania Dutch,
 DD> Creole, Michigan Dutch, Mississippi Valley, Wisconsin Dutch, Minnesota
 DD> Scandinavian, Southwestern, Western, plus Cosmopolitan America)
 DD> Hardcover - January 1, 1947"

 DD> https://www.amazon.com/UNITED-STATES-REGIONAL-COOK-Books/dp/B000BRPEOO

 RH> That sounds good but Steve would probably make me get rid of some other
 RH> cook books if I went out and bought the set. I do need to sort thru
 RH> them, once I can easily access them.

 DD> It's an anthology in one volume. As it says 10Coo Books in 1.

OK, might be something I could get without too much trouble. (G)


 DD> My grandmother made a lot of these -  my job was to horse the
 DD> stoneware crock over to the floor drain and discard the previous day's
 DD> brine. Then wrestle to crock back into it's home.

 RH> Grandmother was smart to take advantage of youn muscles. (G)

 DD> We all had our "chores". If you don't work then you don't eat. Or
 DD> so they threatened. I never tested that, though.

 RH> Not worth testing.

 DD> I do likes me food.  Bv)=

BTW, we're just starting to get rain from the latest tropical storm.
It's supposed to pass over just to the west of us, giving us rain from
now until Saturday. If power is down, I'll be off line.

Catch you later,
