It’s an addiction
Yes dear friends those are ALL cookbooks. It’s an addiction. Fortunately living where I do I haven’t had much chance to add any recently 
You know you have a problem when you have to have a bookcase solely for your kitchen.

Not bad. Here’s a few of the odder titles from my collection:
The Sherlock Holmes Cookbook;
the 1953 edition of Robin Hood Flour’s Prize Winning Recipes ;
Federated Co-op’s Food Fun (1963, first printing, cookbook for kids);
the 1936 edition of the Watkins Cook Book (which, oddly enough, calls for the use of a lot of Watkins products);
and…
The Official Star Trek Cooking Manual (first printing, no less…and the only recipe I’ve ever tried from it is the one for Saurian Brandy.)

btw, isn’t it a bit of a mixed message having the kitty treats on top of the cookbook shelf?

What you don’t treat your cat as peoples? LIkekly the oddest of the cookbooks I have there is Banquests of the Nations (middle shelf - thick green one - 6th from left) and it dates from 1911 - very much in the style of Escoffier. The subtitle of the book is: Eighty-Six Dinners Characteristic and Typical Each of its Own Country. You actually have to be a fairly well trained chef to follow the recipes because they take a lot of instruction for granted.

I am looking for a recipe that I misplaced about 15 years ago. The recipe consisted of a pound cake, cream cheese filling with fresh raspberries. I found the recipe in a promotional calendar from either Co-op or Dairy Producers in Saskatchewan.
It was absolutely wonderful… the customers at my restaurant loved it!!!
Thanks,

HA. My wife has a computer in the kitchen that runs a FileMaker database for her thousands of collected recipies. Now we have room for FOOD.
