Yesterday I talked about the appetizers I made from a 1963 Thanksgiving Menu. Next up on the blog is the main course which consisted of turkey, mashed potatoes, cornbread stuffing, green beans almond, Waldorf salad, cranberry sauce and rolls. If you want to read how it went, check out the link in the bio. Also how great are those Fire King plates and Libby gold leaf glassware! The cookbook I used, in case you were wondering, is The Better Homes and Gardens Birthdays and Family Celebrations. #midcenturyfood #vintagefood #libbyglassware #midcentury #fireking #1960s #sixties #betterhomesandgardens #retrofood #thanksgiving #thanksgivingfood #birthdaysandfamilycelebrations #holidays #turkey #cornbreadstuffing #greenbeans #quaintcooking

On my blog Quaint Cooking, I am talking about the Thanksgiving meal I made following a menu I found in the 1963 Better Homes and Gardens Birthdays and Celebrations. First up are the appetizers - curried wheat bites, cold tomato starter and watermelon pickles with assorted olives. It was a super easy spread and you can find out about it on my blog. Later on in the week I will start talking about the main meal. #libbyglassware #goldleaf #fireking #midcentury #vintage #betterhomesandgarden #birthdaysandfamilycelebrations #thanksgiving #appetizers #1960s #vintagefood #retrofood #sixties #vintagerecipes #quaintcooking

I know some are not ready for Halloween to be over and others already have their eyes on Christmas (trust me I understand) but I am preparing some Thanksgiving posts on my blog Quaint Cooking. I am totally obsessed with that honeycomb turkey. Also anyone from Florida or Georgia should recognize where those salt and pepper shakers are from! #publix #thanksgiving #vintage #thanksgivingdecorations #foodblogger #holidays #saltandpeppershakers #honeycombdecorations #quaintcooking

If you read my post this week on the blog, you may remember me talking about the original Halloween treat I was going to post to go with I Married a Witch. These are the tarts. One of the rare times I took pictures before trying the recipe as I already had the Halloween props out. I was so cocky that day 😭! Unfortunately as hard as I tried, I could not get this 1947 recipe for these tarts to set up correctly. Ah well I loved how cute they looked so I decided to post them here on Instagram. I will definitely be working on these for next year! #failedbakingattempt #oldrecipesdontalwayswork #1940s #forties #vintage #halloween #vintagehalloween #vintagefood #retrofood #chocolatetarts #cats #witches #quaintcooking

Yesterday I mentioned in my post I made waffles to go with the movie I Married a Witch. Why waffles? Well Veronica Lake’s character Jennifer tastes a waffle for the first time and ends up eating ALL the waffles. As the movie is from the forties, I used a recipe from the 1945 Ida Bailey Allen’s Time Saving Cook Book. This was not the original treat I was going to post on the blog but that is another long story. Check out the what it was and this recipe on my blog.

I talked about the movie I like to watch every Halloween on the blog. The movie is the 1942 I Married a Witch starring Veronica Lake. It is a super cute quirky romance that was part of inspiration for Bewitched. Tomorrow I will be talking about what I made eat while watching the movie.
