  2. The rabbit doing the fan dance cracked me up. what a wonderful book. You know, there is a local food writer here who has mentioned reinventing these old cookbooks by making the recipes using organic, local and only the best ingrediants.

  6. These illustrations are great! A fan dancing bunny wha-? And, those hot dogs...hehehe...so many innuendos come to mind that my brain might explode! Tacky, I know. I think I like the appetizers page with the poodle the best, though.
    Thanks for sharing!

  9. This is so strange-I have the same pamphlet...or at least I did until my son swiped it from me because he thinks it is so funny.

    I did a post on it here:
