It‘s a dreary cool day here, but this lemon pie will be our sunshine. 😎 Sure sign of impending summer break when I begin making these kinds of pies. This is a dessert I‘ll actually eat because it‘s citrusy. 🍋 It only takes a sliver to satisfy.

I have taped up this book over & over again.

Hack repair - it split wide open. Good thing I don‘t do anything remotely like surgery. 😅

Cathythoughts That‘s a lovely repair job 🥰 cello taped with love. (edited) 2y

LeahBergen 😆😆 2y

JamieArc I saw a photo of a book dedication today that said something along the lines of “Mom - I could never have been a doctor. People would have died.” 😂😂 2y

My daughter has declared lime & lemon icebox pies a summer tradition. ☀️🕶 Works for me, even if we‘ve started a tad early.

LeahBergen I want a piece! 3y

GingerAntics That looks good!!! 3y

SW-T That looks yummy! A tradition I support! 😂 3y

Bookwormjillk That looks amazing! 3y

Hooked_on_books Your daughter is clearly deeply intelligent. That looks incredible! 😋 3y

ShelleyBooksie Yum. How does one make this? 3y

Tamra @ShelleyBooksie I made the Graham cracker crust from the tagged book and the filling recipe is from the back of a lemon juice concentrate bottle! I‘ve made it from real lemons as well, it‘s so stinking easy! If you Google lemon icebox pie you‘ll find many recipes, including no bake ones. (edited) 3y

Tamra @LeahBergen I wish we could have a slice over a #furrowedmiddlebrowclub book discussion! 😃 3y

Tamra @Hooked_on_books I‘ll tell her. 😆 No doubt she‘ll concur. 3y

Tamra @Nutmegnc @TheBookHippie @GingerAntics @SW-T @Bookwormjillk the great thing is it only takes a tiny slice to satisfy. I don‘t have much of a sweet tooth, but I make an exception for citrus. 😋 3y

GingerAntics @Tamra I know how you feel. The sweet/tart balance of citrus always seems to work. 3y

Nutmegnc @Tamra Welp. I gotta have the citrus. I‘m going to have to make one now. #notabaker #idontcareigottahaveit 3y

britt_brooke Yum! 3y

kspenmoll Oh it looks delicious! 3y

A bit of emergency hack book “repair.” 🥴 I had to do the outside spine as well.

What would make publisher think a thick paperback cookbook was a good idea? I was too young and inexperienced when I bought it to know better. I suppose it was the cost factor. Regardless of condition, I still love it……to it‘s disintegration apparently. Ha!

Aims42 My mom has a cookbook that is just rubberbanded together lol Everytime we take it from the shelf we hold our breath a page doesn‘t fall out 🤣 3y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa You loved it to pieces! That is a testament of a good book! 3y

LeahBergen It‘s well-loved. 😍 3y

Cathythoughts I‘ll bet there are some brilliant recipes in there 😋 3y

Lcsmcat My Joy of Cooking was in 3 pieces, plus a few loose pages, before I found a hardback copy at a library sake and replaced it. 3y

Ongoing joke that my husband has the most awful pedestrian taste in salad dressing: Thousand Island. 😝 Reminiscent of supper clubs and buffets. He recently Googled it and now never ceases to mention its haute resort origins. I remind him that doesn‘t change how awful it tastes. 😆 Anyway, I made some homemade and it‘s marginally better because it‘s less sweet.

I‘ve had this book for 30+ years now - highly recommend as a basics reference!

Aims42 My husband and I aren‘t much better, our favorite dressing is ranch 😆 I‘m all for trying the fancy stuff, but that‘s my go-to 🥗💚 4y

Tamra @Aims42 I don‘t mind ranch because it isn‘t sweet! And homemade ranch with sour cream is delicious! 4y

Aims42 @Tamra oooo yes!! I hear ya on the sweetness, I can‘t do vinegarettes (not sure the spelling on that and after 5 tries, that‘s what we‘re going with haha!) for that reason. Oof, same just make my teeth hurt 🤭 4y

mandarchy @Tamra when I was a kid my brother found this taco salad recipe that I crave occasionally. Fritos, cheddar, taco meat, thousand island and iceberg lettuce. I couldn't eat it now, I've become allergic to peppers. But back in the 70s my favorite dressing was wishbone French. They changed it and now it's awful. I found a Sunset magazine salad recipe book from then and now I make it myself. It also has ketchup in it! 4y

MaureenMc When I was a kid I loved Thousand Island dressing. Now I can‘t stomach it. Way, way too sweet! 4y

BookNAround I do a homemade Thousand Island for my reubens but don‘t really use it for anything else. 4y

Tamra @BookNAround yum, a reuben! 4y

Tamra @mandarchy I think it‘s also close to the “special sauce” on a Big Mac? 4y

Tamra @MaureenMc husband preferred the homemade because it is tangy instead of overwhelmingly sweet. 😅 win! 4y

EvieBee What a good wife you are! Looks delicious! 4y

#OldCoolBooks | May 3: naked books

These are some naked books that I got from my Great Aunt. The naked cookbooks in particularly are cool because they‘re stuffed with her notes & recipes.

Linsy Ooh, yes! Inherited books with notes! That‘s a prize. 💖 7y

Wandering_Jess I looove old cook books! 7y

This is another cookbook that comes out once a year on the Sunday after Thanksgiving for turkey curry. This is NOT true Indian cooking, alas for I adore Indian cuisine. But, it is still delicious comfort food. I like to amp up the spice heat. 😋

heikemarie My dad always makes turkey a la king, traditions are fun! 7y

Tamra @inwhichHeikereadsharder they are! 7y

TricksyTails We love the same cookbooks! Great comfort food. This is another one I used to use all the time but it's disappeared somewhere along the way. Happy to see someone using it! 😋♥️ 7y

Nute Yum! 7y
