[Kitchen Witch]

I have been asked by some members here where I have obtained my Depression Era recipes.

Many of these recipes have been handed down to me from friends and family. Many are written in Italian and need to be translated when I have the time. Many do not have any portions/measurements - just ingredients.

I come from a long line of cooks (professional/chefs also) - so I have inherited many, many, many.

There has to be many thousands or more D. E. recipes in my computer.

For those who know me, know that I have an extensive cookbook collection. Because I am moving - I donated over 400 books and I still have close to 1000 left. The old/depression/1800's books/etc. that are so yellowed they have to be handled very carefully - I am going to scan into my computer so that I do not lose the recipes that I cherish. Once that is done - I will have so much more to share with you all!

I do not remember the author(s) of the D.E. recipe books that I have (they are packed and in storage) so I am relying on mostly those hand-written that I have and the ones already in my computer(s).

I thought I would be moving this month - but it looks like it won't be for a couple months yet. Once unpacked - I can give more info on the D.E. recipes.

And as always - thank you for the compliments and the nice messages that you send me - and of course - I am willing to share them all with you.
