Betty Crocker’s Hostess Cookbook
General Mills
1973
I know that COVID-19 puts a damper on any kind of entertaining, but just in case you are preparing for that day when we are all healthy, Betty Crocker has you covered. This book truly has some retro recipes I am sure you can’t wait to get started. A couple of my favorites: Olive Surprise Roast, Jellied Watercress Soup, Tomato Aspic Mold, the list just goes on and on.
Bonus! Just in time for Valentine’s Day, you can feast on all things pink. Your loved one will surely appreciate the effort.
These cookbooks are a ton of fun and probably will sell well in a book sale for those into retro cooking and fashion. I get the feeling that to achieve “perfect woman” status, one had to be able to do a dinner party of the first order. I am going to guess that ordering a pizza and handing everyone a beer wouldn’t qualify.
Happy Entertaining!
