Scope and Content

From the Collection:

The Culinary Papers series contains a variety of recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, desserts, snacks, and beverages. Roughly half of the material resides in culinary notebooks, the other within culinary binders. Regardless, the entire series consists of recipes both handwritten and clipped from magazines, newspapers, and boxes. Particularly interesting items include: magazines from the "Pillsbury Bake-Off," a recipe for "cranberry souffle salad," several articles on homemade Christmas gifts, and small a Jell-O cookbook.

The Ephemera series contains five subseries: Home Crafts and Improvement; Genealogy; News Clippings; Religious Ephemera; and Sewing and Fabric Crafts. Materials within these series vary from photographs to handwritten notes.
