I just found this on facebook and it has so many old recipes. I can't wait to try them. If you have a facebook account join and check it out. It is called Recipes of days gone by.

You have to go on to your facebook account and in the search bar, type recipes of days gone by. There are thousands of recipes from the 1900's to the 90's.

I just Googled it.

Looks like each link only has selected recipes from it, but you don't need a FB account:

https://search.yahoo.com/search?ei=u...f+days+gone+by


Here's a similar site with lots of handwritten ones.


Kind of a hassle that the home page starts with the more recent entries and you gotta scroll to the bottom and click the previous page:

Wow, some of those sound truly awful. My daughter won a baking contest with what looks like the same Pistachio Bundt cake, when she was about 10.

I have tons of old recipes too. They are fun to look at.

I have a gallon Ziploc stuffed with old recipes written on index cards.. I know at one point they were stored in those card boxes..
Some of these are old recipes treasured from childhood and they haven been looked at or made in decades.. My Mother wasn't much of a cook but I do remember her giving some of them a try at least once.. Most are copies I made when I was but a wee Lad, In fifth grade or so..

I also have old cook books from my Grandparents, half tattered and torn and spotted with mystery goo..
Some of the old recipes are of things I wouldn't think of eating..

Thanks for the nostalgic link, I'll enjoy reading this..
