For those just stopping in, this is a series of old, vintage recipes straight from my grandmother's gray, metal recipe box. A few years ago I started this series in a much more organized, professional, typed out way with photos, some background stories, etc. but life is just far too busy and I didn't have any time to commit so I let it go.
Wanting to be sure I got the recipes saved for my kids and grandchildren, I'm posting them "quick and sloppy" by taking photos of the cards. I keep my blog public so others can find and enjoy them as well.
I inherited her recipe box (along with her huge collection of Wilton cake decorating magazines and boxes of old, vintage community, church, organization cookbooks) and although she passed away almost a decade ago, her recipes live on.
I am putting these here for her grandchildren (and great grandchildren) as I don't know who will inherit the old, gray, metal recipe box. these recipes are from about 1945-1980. Dream Bars
Uncooked Fruit Cake
Refrigerator Cuke (cucumber) Salad
Fruit Pizza
Strawberry Pie
Strawberry Swirl
Cherry Dessert (Dump Cake)
