“This diary of recipes was given to me as a gift because I maintain on online archive of old love letters, etc. However, I never had the time to go through the book and type up the recipes to add them to my web site (which is no longer active).I do know the book was purchased from an odd & ends bin at a used bookstore for about $3 — the person selling it had no idea how valuable it was, since they weren’t operating an antique store. They got their hands on it because it was tossed in with a box of books recovered from an attic during an estate sale somewhere in northeast Wisconsin — my guess is the Sheboygan area. Wisconsin has a rich mixture of early immigrants, which might explain some of the titles of the recipes, which I’ve never even heard of before. I’m from Alaska — I can cook a few Russian dishes.I sincerely hope it finds a good home with you. If you ever retype the recipes and want to share them with the world, I’d be happy to give them space on my website and give you credit for restoring the recipes. I do regret not having as much time to do everything I want to do!!!!”.
