LOVE IS NEVER TOO LATE, NEVER TOO BOLD AND NEVER ENOUGH!




Love Never Too Late

I read this article today in the Hartford Courant.  Made me think of when I was single and I used to send bags of tea to my family and friends on Valentine's Day.  I believe 2/14 is a day to celebrate with our friends and family our love for them.  To let them think of us as we think of them.

Enjoy the next few days and celebrate the love you have with the people you know.  I am the hero in my story, you are the hero in your story and I love each and every one of your stories.  You are enough!

Celebrate love!

HC - Women wear white Suffrage

Hartford Courant shows a picture of many of the women who wore white to honor women's suffrage.

Also, you can go to google images and see all the women who wore white:

META GIVEN

Blog posts about Meta Given and her cookbooks and sales:

BLOGS

I am always impressed with the effort that people put toward Meta Given.  Meta Given is not the most popular cookbook author - but she does stack up against the like of Fannie Farmer, Julia Childs, James Beard and Irma S. Rombauer.

Sandys Chatter Searching for Meta Given

Sandy's Chatter Searching for Meta Given gave me my first break in finding information about Meta Given for a biography (My Time with Meta Given) I wrote in 2018.  Sandy is an aficionado of antique cookbooks.  Meta Given was just one of may authors that Sandy wrote about over the years.

SALES

Not only blog posts, but the sales efforts that are made in the reselling of her very famous cookbooks:
Modern Family Cook Book (1942-1972)
Modern Encyclopedia of Cooking (1947-1972)


Shop In The Vintage Kitchen


Not everyone is a fan of Meta Given or even have heard of her.  Yet many people have her cookbooks upon their shelves without knowing it.  My mother told me that she asked one of her cousins before she passed if she had a Meta Given cookbook.  She claimed she had never heard of the woman.  Yet when she reviewed her cookbook, there amongst her favorite books was a two volume cookbook.  I know that several of my relatives had Meta Given cookbooks which included my mother, her sister and several of her first cousins.  With the help of my sister many of the next generation have these precious books as well.

Thanks to the internet you too can own one of these wonderful books check them out through the following websites:
