  1. I have a Betty Crocker I was given in 1971, I love it, so great! I have a huge collection of very old cookbooks, including one from 1919 called, "A Thousand Ways To Please Husband" and is a fictional account of a newly married couple and how she uses some new fangled gas cooker instead of a wood stove to bake and roast. There are some references to kitchen appliances I've never heard of. When my mother married in 1946, she was handed a cookbook after the civil service that had truly nauseating advice on how to please your hard working "daddy", which even my mother found offensive, especially since she worked outside the house and more hours than my dad. They should have handed every new couple a cocktail bar set from what I saw growing up...
