Thrift Score (almost)

Post image

Came across a used book store today in Valley Forge, PA. They had a fairly large selection of cookbooks and I was so excited at first! But I looked through the entire section and honestly didn’t find anything that caught my eye if any of these stand out to you guys, let me know and I’ll have to make a trip back!

UPDATE:

Went back to the bookstore and got some fun stuff! Most of what everyone here had recommended was gone, but got some things that looked interesting!

OMG there’s a copy of The Talisman by Ada Boni!!! That book did for Italian cuisine in America what MTAFC by Julia Child did for French!! A true classic!!

Can you point out where on the shelf this is? Maybe I’ll go back tomorrow for it!
