Good Housekeeping's Ten P.M. Cook Book (1958) is a typically fun little booklet from this great line of softcover cook books published by The Hearst Corp; all of them are full of eye poppingly cute artwork (this time by the terrific Tye Gibson) and killer hand lettering, and of course the gloriously delicious concoctions: holiday fare, treats on a tray, pick me ups, dips, dunks, spreads, ready mades, and hot treats etc. We'll have highlights from the second half of this book in our next post-- right now, I gotta get ready to eat some food myself! Hope ya'll have a super Thanksgiving today!

We ship via USPS Priority Mail, but have had some packages scanned in at pick up as "Delivered" instead of as received. We've also had several packages that have not been scanned in at all leaving us without accurate tracking information and packages that seem to hang up for several days at a main sorting hub in KC.
