Inside Front Cover by William Sayles
Book Series: One
A few months ago Sara and I were exploring the Goodwill Outlet in Sodo. If you’ve never been to a Goodwill Outlet, it’s where items that fail to sell in the retail stores are dumped into huge bins and sold at 75% off. You can pick up a bunch of different items there from records to dart boards to sketchy looking tools. They even sell clothes by the pound.
We went through the whole place and eventually landed in the books section. There was mountains of books piled with no particular rhyme or reason. While searching through the piles, Sara picked up “The Ford Treasury of Favorite Recipes from Famous Eating Places,” a mouth full of a name if I’ve ever heard one. She opened up to the inside cover and we immediately knew that we had found a gem. Originally published in 1950 by Simon and Schuster for the Ford Motor Company and designed by Artists and Writers Guild Inc., Treasury is a collection of recipes, paintings, and descriptions of famous and not so famous restaurants around the United States.
