Two Trick Pony: Stationery & Notecards

There’s so much to love about this book I’m giving to Carrie Pony as a late housewarming gift. She’s just recently set up her backyard for grilling, so when I saw this in a “free” bin outside a used book store I knew it was meant for her. (First thing to love - it was free!) It was published in 1963 by Better Homes and Gardens.




Second thing to love is the many brilliant cooking tips like this one - use flower pots to serve your guests food in!




Third thing to love is the classic recipes, like:
Whopper Burgers
Rafted Weiners
Cheese-frosted Luncheon Meat
Peanut-buttered Pork Roast
On-a-Saber Beef
Texas Trail Cakes
Candy-Cooky Poles
Gosh and Golly Relish
and Tuna Mousse!
Yes, these are all real titles of the recipes found in this book.




And last but not least, who doesn’t love a spread that includes a couple of unidentifiable loafs?!




Happy grilling season everyone!
