Welcome to Freaky Friday. I happen to be the lucky owner of a set of recipe cards from 1973, a lot of recipe cards, and most of them are a bit freaky! I thought I'd share some of my thoughts and possible ways to update these recipes. Some cards are just too far gone and can't be fixed but hopefully, at least I can get you laughing. Now don't be afraid because some of these recipe cards have a good foundation for creative recipe ideas. We have come a long way baby...

My vote, let's just pretend we never saw this and move on.
You've jogged my memory - I have some old recipe cards lying round in my study, waiting for me to do a nostalgic journey.

Holy crap, this recipe card is from the Betty Crocker olive/avocado box set, isn't it? I own the whole set!! It was bought at a yard sale and given to me as a birthday gift one year by someone who clearly didn't know what recipe gold she had just purchased. And I agree, there are lots of scary looking recipes in the set. Definitely! :-)
