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...
I wouldn't want to eat one of those pool balls thinking it was a cherry tomato!!

Ack! Those give me a stomach ache just looking at them. :) I just found your blog, I love your ideas and just did a post on your toddler truffles, they're a big hit at our house.

ReplyDeleteIt's so funny, but I have those same cards! I got them from my great grandma years ago! I haven't used a single one, but it's fun to look at. Girls back then had a love affair going on with molds.
