Thank you! :) I was looking through a Women's Auxiliary cookbook from a church in my old hometown yesterday or the day before as I was packing, and looking through it was a real slice of history. Lots of the recipes are barely lists of ingredients, never mind detailed step-by-step instructions; my guess is that the recipes haven't changed much since the 1950s (and I suspect the book is from the late 70s or early 80s). The "Mrs. Husband'sFirstName Husband'sLastName" signatures on many of the recipes were a reminder of a time when that was the polite way to address a married woman (well, Mrs. HisLastName, anyway; the first names likely got added for clarity), and the regionalisms were fun to remember.

The recipes are on the bland side by today's palate, but when I can access it again, I suspect it will be an interesting look at post-WWII cooking in Eastern Canada.
