Anyone else find this ad a little unnerving?

I posted some old 1950s newspapers ads for Valentine’s Day that I found throughout the year while researching other topics. Check them out on Quaint Cooking. I also linked to the ones I posted for Halloween if you are interested. #valentines #valentinesday2020 #vintage #1950s #fifties #midcentury #vintageads #vintagevalentine #retro #quaintcooking

Today on Quaint Cooking, I continue down my journey into fondue with a stop at chocolate fondue. There is nothing wrong in my book with dipping delicious sweet tidbits into a silky chocolate sauce. Well....unless you hate chocolate. Check out my blog for the recipe and a little bit of history on this classic fondue dessert just in time for Valentine’s Day. #fondue #hearts #fonduepot #valentinesday #chocolatefondue #chocolatesauce #chocolate #retrodesserts #retro #kitchy #1960s #sixties #vintagefoods #midcenturyfoods #vintage #delicious #iwanttoswiminthis #quaintcooking

Fondue!!! I talk about the classic cheese fondue on Quaint Cooking today. Also totally love this green fondue pot which was also pictured in the 1976 Southern Living The Fondue and Buffet Cookbook! Check it out with the link in the bio. #fondue #cheesefondue #cheese #retrofood #retro #kitschy #kitschyfood #vintage #vintagefood #1960s #1970s #ooeygoeycheese #avocadogreen #fonduepots #fondueparty #quaintcooking

Today I posted a cheese fondue recipe that you would find in many cookbooks before 1950s (though I have come across this recipe in later cookbooks). It is called cheese fondue and it is a dish that is a cross between a soufflé and scrambled eggs. Super easy to put together! This one I got out of the Betty Furness Westinghouse Cookbook that I wrote about last week! Tomorrow will be the cheese fondue most people think of when fondues mentioned. #old recipes #cheesefondue #eggs #cheddarcheese #vintage #recipes #eggrecipes #cheeserecipes #easyrecipes #quaintcooking

This month on Quaint Cooking is Fondue February! I have been collecting and preparing for this for what feels like forever. This week I will be talking about two entirely different cheese fondue recipes. Next week will be all about chocolate fondue (and a Jell-O recipe will make an appearance). Third week will be fondue bourguignonne otherwise known as beef fondue. The last week will be a few of the recipes that this craze brought forth in the 1960s and 1970s. #fondue #1960s #1970s #sixties #seventies #cookbooks #vintagecookbooks #fonduefebruary #bookstagram #vintage #fonduepots #foodtrends #quaintcooking

Today on the blog I talk about the Betty Furness Westinghouse Cookbook. Betty Furness had a long and amazing career. First in the 1930s and 1940s as an actress in RKO films. She was in Swing Time with Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire! (One of my absolute favorite movies). Then as the regular spokesperson for Westinghouse for the 1950s. Lastly, she worked as a consumer advocate first for President Lyndon Johnson and then for TV news. On the blog I talk about her time at Westinghouse and then about this amazing yet completely underrated cookbook. Plus as always there are old advertisements featured. Check it out on my blog Quaint Cooking. Link is in the bio. Also if anyone could tell me if there is or isn’t any difference between the yellow cover and teal cover. I could not find anything in my research and I have the yellow copy. #vintagecookbooks #oldcookbooks #bettyfurness #westinghouse #westinghousecookbook #midcentury #vintage #1950s #fifties #midcenturycookbooks #1950scookbooks #oldads #vintageads #quaintcooking
