More Scary Thrifted Recipes

[Thrift Shop Romantic]

I thought since it's been so slow here, I'd stimulate conversation and your taste buds (well, probably only conversation... ) by sharing a link to some recently thrifted vintage cookbooks. My favorite in these showcases fresh artichokes-turned-candlestick holders.

I wish I were kidding.

You just gotta LOVE artichokes flavored with wax!

Mmmmmm, GOOD!

i don't know which is the worst = the impaled artichokes, or the delectable plate of brussel sprouts. (that's a visual oxymoron if you ask me...)

Hey!  I love brussel sprouts.

Note the gelatinous mold in the background, which is a to-scale replica of Sweden's famous ice hotel...

Or possibly the end scene in Ghostbusters after Mr. Stay-Puft exploded over that art deco apartment building.

Well, ice hotel or achitecture coated in nuked Fluff , it's an elegant way to showcase your culinary talents and distract your guests from the pot o' cheesy fishy bed-rolls before them.

Mmmm, another Fluff reference...  You are making it hard to stay on my "NO HFCS" diet.

Maybe I need a new slogan:
"Putting forum members off their feed one recipe at a time."

you could be the next diet sensation - kill the appetite, lose the weight!

Kraut and Frankfurter Tahitian??!!! 

And, yes, there is something vaguely sexual about the impaled artichokes, I have to say...slightly disturbing. (Or I probably just have an active imagination.)

Keep 'em coming, TSR. You keep this up and I won't need that weight loss surgery!
