Thanks Cathy! In addition to Mom's finds with trading S&H Green Stamps, I also remember her getting kitchen tea towels from boxes of Breeze Laundry Detergent, and then of course a lovely colored drinking glass with a fill-up at the gas station!
Sticky Pirate- thanks for the welcome- it's great to see u here too! I joined about a week ago and love everything about the place- mostly the friendly warmth! Looking forward to more w/ you!

By chance, has anyone seen a copy of the newest edition of Edna Lewis' "A Taste of Country Cooking"? I have a 1970's paperback copy, but around the time of her death recently a revised hardcover edition came out and is currently offered at "The Good Cook". I prefer to have hardcover copies of cookbooks, but I'm wondering if that alone is reason for me to get the new one? Are there other additions/improvments that would warrant the purchase?

These are the "freebies" I just opened another new, fresh membership with. Getting ahead of the game with some early Christmas shopping! The cool thing about cookbooks is they come in nearly all colors and sizes- and stand a chance of pleasing nearly everyone! (Can you tell my family are big fans of country music? Now, as soon as I open a new CD Club membership and get my 8 freebies there- my holiday shopping will be half-way done!)
