WOW! That makes you about 160!!!!!!!!!!!

Mine is from the '60's and the cover is held on with plastic packing tape. I treasure it. I got it when we got married. One of my favorite recipes is Cheeseburger Pie. There is also a good hamburger stroganoff in it. There are lots of good recipes in it.

Found today, tucked inside . . . a list of ALL our bills for then (this included utilities, furniture, etc.) Grand total of $235.60! This included an $11.50 payment on my first SINGER (which I bought from the local SINGER dealer on a rent to own deal). Thanks for prodding me to the pancake recipe and a lot of good memories!
I use the pancake recipe too!
