Vintage Homemaking

I found a great blog today. One of the things I love to find is old housekeeping books from the 50's and earlier. Even the very early ones form the 30's and 40's. Also old etiquette books, cookbooks, and home ec textbooks. It's almost like finding little timecapsules. A different era, one certainly more innocent than ours. I get a kick out of reading how "to please your husband" by cooking wholesome meals, keeping your children clean, your house presentable...and do it all in a lovely dress, immaculate dress & heels! Ha! I'd get shagged 7 ways to sunday if i wore something like that when my Dh came home. Come to think of it...
