In reply to the discussion: Do you still have cookbooks? Do you use them? [View all]Diamond_Dog
(34,613 posts)15. I have a couple old classics that I use for general recipe information
Betty Crockers for example. My mother hated to cook and was only too happy to pass her Betty Crocker cookbook along to me. She probably got it as a wedding gift.
I made a lot of cookies when my boys were kids and I used the Betty Crocker Cookie Book a lot. Well I still make cookies for them and theyre adults now 🙂
I have way too many others that I hardly ever use, mostly were given to me as gifts throughout the years.
