Cooking
Some years ago, I came into possession of some wonderfully funky recipe cards, courtesy of the good folks at Archie McPhee.
A pack of...oh, a dozen or so cards, in that tell-tale late sixties to mid-seventies photography (it's the color, man...it's the color!). Potato chips are used often, as well as some other questionable foods (Spam is not an ingredient I recommend).
But, they're just so...neat! I went about trying to get all fifteen sets in the series.
Somehow, I was left with just fourteen. Duplicates of many other numbers, but never that elusive fifteenth set.
So finally, this weekend, I sent an email off to McPhee, asking about the cards.
Monday I learned that they do not, in fact, have that final set! Drats!
So, if anyone out there happens to have the cards from set fifteen of The Complete Family Recipe Card Series Collection...let's talk, ok?

- While Visions Of Food Prep Danced In Their Heads
I have to confess: I haven't been all that excited by Christmas the past few years. I think it has a lot to do with being so far away from my family and the traditions I grew up with. But now that Alex is getting a bit older, the house is much further...

Not in the same dish, thank you veddy much! First, be sure to check out this month's Sugar High Friday round-up, hosted by Alice of My Adventures in the Breadbox. Second, please check out the wacky and fabulous Archie McPhee. Among their latest goodies:...

I don't know about you, but I'm constantly bombarded with 'join our cooking/recipe' magazine/club/group' mail. Cooking Light, Southern Living, Cook's Illustrated...you name, I get mail from all of them. I try to be strong, but...
