I have the best intentions but time eludes me.<br /><br />I still have Crisco in my cupboard. I use it rarely but it does make good cookies. Smile. I don't remember Spry.

I think Spry was so clever to have Aunt Jenny as a comic book character rather than the usual "food expert".<br /><br />Wouldn't it be fun if someone else found a Spry cookbook...July could be Spry month on VTT!<br /><br />I'd guess that your booklet must be from the 40s by the look of the hair styles, clothes and the-to us- tired jokes about brides' cooking...my mother was a bride in the 40s and she told me she hadn't even boiled water until she was married so maybe there was some truth to those old jokes.Mirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01245963180065978054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645573232665842025.post-66128917814670982112010-07-07T22:14:29.823-05:002010-07-07T22:14:29.823-05:00Great postcard and ads.
