Something of interest....


I have been sharing with you all a few recipes from a cookbook dated 1912....

well, one thing I discovered in this cookbook is a mention of an item called a "fireless cooker" ..something back then that was "new" to the housewife...and which wound up evolving into....our electric stoves.

You can find out more information about the man who invented it all..here...(very interesting little bit of history) http://www.lloydcopeman.com/biography/pop_mechanics.html

Well, here is wishing you all a wonderful day..and you have recieved a bit of a history lesson this morning..ha.(now what did you expect from a gal that also home educates her children?)
Have a good day!

I'm always far learning something new every day. Thanks for the info. The apple recipe sounds very good. Might even give it a try this weekend.
Have a good one.
