The Retro Cookbook

 
Last week my Mum bought me this super awesome gift, The Australian Women's Weekly "The Retro Cookbook". It is filled with beautifully designed retrospective graphics, vintage food product advertisements, classic photographs of 1950's housewives & vintage  memorabilia. So, basically cover-to-cover awesomeness!

"This is a trip down memory lane - a beautifully designed book with pages from old cookbooks showing what we used to eat, old advertisements showing what we used to buy and wonderful modern recipes alongside their beautiful modern photographs. These recipes are for finger food and sandwiches, snacks, afternoon teas, family dinners, the Sunday roast, and puddings. They contrast the way we eat now and the way things used to be." - Amazon

The Retro Cookbook can be purchased on Amazon here.
