I bought the 1949 edition of this book a couple years ago because I thought it'd be a funny addition to my cookbook collection. After letting it sit on my coffee able for a few weeks, I finally got around to thumbing through it and now I use it all the time. It's become my go-to guide for hors d'oeuvre and cocktails.

I just posted some covers by Chwast on my site.

Moscow Mules are my favorite! Add some fresh lime juice and a dash of bitters and you have a wonderful drink.

Thank you very much for sharing this precious book with us. The drawings are lovely!

No more Blueprint magazine print version?! Did anyone else get the customer service card in the mail today? This is just sad.

Sorry about the mis-type: it's Helen Gurley Brown's The Single Girl's Cookbook.

I have a copy of helen gurley brown's The Girl's Cookbook with chapters on planning dinner when the boss comes over, breaking up with your boyfriend by searving foods that men don't like, and several party menus. It includes a tip on measuring out your cocktails using measuring spoons if you don't have a jigger (just don't let your guests see).

I found a 1940s version of the same book about a year ago at a second hand store and absolutely love it. Over the years whoever owned it had tucked newspaper recipe clippings, postcards, etc. into its pages and that adds a nice personal touch to the book's campy fare.

Ah! I bought this book at an antique store a number of years ago. What a fun read, eh!?
