Looking for new recipes for your holiday dinner? Here's a selection from "Sixteen Good Old Recipes for Christmas Fare," an undated pamphlet found in MS 294 Robert Aickman Collection. You've got your Yorkshire Christmas Pie and Rich Plum Pudding without Flour, which look fun, if a bit complex. There's also lighter fare, like Whipped Syllabubs. However, we can't present these recipes without noting Worcester Receipt for Potting Lampreys, which requires a stone jar, Punch That Will Keep for Any Length of Time, which requires 30 (30!) pounds of sugar, and Raisin Wine, which you should have started making back in August if you wanted it for the holidays.

Pure Hydrocity !!
Sonic's drink recipe from the Sonic cookbook !! It was honestly pretty good I do highly recommend it
(recipe below the cut for anyone who wants it)
(I recommend getting a package of mint instead of just 3 that way you can have extra mint to garnish the drink with but really it's up to you)
3 mint leaves
2 ounces (59 ml) blue raspberry syrup
1 ounce (30 ml) lemon juice (one lemon will get you this amount btw)
Ice
10 ounces (296 ml) sparkling water (plain seltzer water)
Lightly muddle mint leaves in large glass, pour Lemon Juice and blue raspberry syrup into the glass, add ice and pour in seltzer. Stir to combine
(special thanks to my dear romantic partner Niko for giving me the recipe in the first place)

Obesity: The Science, Culture, and Politics of Fatness in America
In Fall 2023, students enrolled in Dr. Margot Finn's course on the science, culture, and politics of obesity worked in groups to research and write captions for food history materials.
Most of these items were from the Special Collections Research Center's Janice Bluestein Longone Culinary Archive.
These were featured on the Shapiro Library Screens in Bert's Study Lounge.
M. L. Holbrook, Eating for Strength (New York, M. L. Holbrook & co. [c1888]). Library of Congress.
The 1888 edition of Eating for Strength, a popular 19th century work on diet written by Martin Luther Holbrook approaches food in a scientific manner, outlining the dietary needs of various classes of people and looking at the healthfulness of various foods. This book includes information about food and diet in relation to health and work, together with several hundred recipes for different foods and drinks. All of these tables illustrate the protein, carbohydrate, and fat content of some of the most common foods that characterized the diets of that era. This underscores how even over 100 years ago, these three macronutrients were seen as important to monitor in order to curb obesity.
Keeping Your Weight Down (Westfield, N.Y. : Welch Grape Juice Co., [1921?]). Janie Bluestein Longone Culinary Archive.
Published by Welch Juice Company in 1921, this recipe book called Keeping Your Weight Down suggests that Welch's Grape Juice can aid in weight maintenance, and emphasizes its importance in influencing desired health benefits with their beverage. The
monochrome-purple book cover showcases an idealized “thin” model covered in loose night clothing, examining a weight scale. Inside, “Pudding and Desserts” recipes are listed in sections with the usage of Welch brand ingredients. Framing grapes as dessert, often eliminated in dieting practices, allows for the luxury of sweets within the strictures of losing weight.
Ruth West, Stop Dieting! Start Losing! (New York : E.P. Dutton & Company, Inc., 1956.). Janice Bluestein Longone Culinary Archive.
Although Ruth West’s Stop Dieting! Start Losing! was a dieting recipe book published in 1956, the artifact has a startling resemblance to modern attitudes about weight, despite the huge body of research conducted on obesity since this time. Today, It’s easy to laugh at slogans like “how to lose 2 to 3 pounds a week” and “16 foods for sex appeal and vitality,” but how different are these claims from those we hear today from diet magazines, social media and even our own medical professionals? Is the rigor of evidence from then to now all that different?

Here is the promised funeral cookbook! Food to Die For: A Book of Funeral Food, Tips, and Tales compiled by Jessica Bemis Ward (2004) is a combination of history, culture, and helpful advice on funerals and recipes. The first five images are from Food to Die For with recipes!
There is only one cookbook in our collection dedicated to funerals, but there are others with funeral home ads with these two being from 1947 and 1977 which I've added in as a bonus! Both are cookbooks written by local towns in Mississippi and are available in our digital collections.

ok so this morning I was looking for my old drawing tablet ( did not find it unfortunately) BUT I did find lots of old trinkets that I thought I'd lost, and many of them carry some... interesting memories I guess.
anyways since the tma brainworms™ are plaguing my mind ofc my first thought was "wow imagine a statement based off of this" and like, we got many, many statements about someone looking through old stuff ( most are either buried or spiral, sometimes corruption if I'm not mistaken) BUT iirc there isn't one that rly explored the whole memories thing. and it's funny I think, maybe you'll get lost looking through it, maybe in the endless corridors—were there that many before??— or maybe you'll get lost in the memories. Or both, who knows.
#don't mind me just thinking about memory and nostalgia again#I've found my old barbie cookbook. that's what inspired this post.#tma#the magnus archives#maybe I'll write this someday? VERY unlikely but hey

Since looking up my mom's fav cookbook (better homes and gardens 1969 edition) from my childhood on the internet archive, it feels a little bit like that one episode of friends where it turns out that phoebe's grandmother's incredible chocolate chip cookie recipe was just from the back of nestle tollhouse chocolate chip package
#only a little bit of shade to my mom because she is an incredible cook#buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut#cannot recommend looking up old cookbooks on the Internet archive enough bro#do it#it's wonderful#an earlier edition of better homes and gardens has a recipe for squirrel stew!

Penuche is a brown sugar fudge. Put this with Mrs. Gladin’s cake filling, and you’d have quite a yummy dessert.
From the Straight A Cookbook, 1997

I'm updating the baking section at this store and these images they're using for the planogram are throwing me for a loop
What year are these images from.........? They legitimately look like they're from 1996
#i am no longer doing my job. i am now in the Hershey's archives#trying to find out when they used that Bake Shoppe logo on their chocolate chips#i did find a cookbook with that branding from 1997 so i might not have been too far off
