  And often available super cheap at thrift stores.

    Or your library, some even digitally so you can just get them on Libby and not have to drive to the library! Plus then you can screen cap your favorite recipes. 😁

    But they’re all from the 90s at best, so as long as you like shake and bake, casseroles, and jello with fruit chunks in it…

      I mean, it’s not usual to find more modern books at a thrift store. Yeah a lot of them are old, but newer ones are there.

      Even among the old ones there are some that are sought after, like Betty Crocker’s Cooky Book. Best snickerdoodles of my life.

      Apparently I didn’t buy a book produced within the last 5 years for $40 less than it retails for. Good to know. Can you let me know what else is happening in my life?
