Educators around the world will agree that mixing two seemingly-unrelated subject matters will increase interest and retention. Parents will agree that bizarre trivia and food oddly have the power to lure their children away from technology. This isn't just any food though. These are recipes from the late 1800's and early 1900's. Many are from a time period before the electric stove. These recipes range from simple ingredients to some very unique ingredients, and are guaranteed not to involve a microwave. This book highlights several classic, "fairly-popular," fairy tales and verses. I've researched these fairy tales and verses and included interesting, whimsical, and downright bizarre information about their origins. I've sat in my library floor, carefully scouring through the pages of my antique cookbooks and have located the most special recipes to pair with each story. The recipes are shared with you exactly as they were originally written. Relish the idiosyncrasies that were the building blocks for modern cookery. Your children are sure to find amusement in the measurement and grammatical differences. Now, you can discuss Goldilocks from a whole new perspective while cooking porridge from a 1905 cookbook!
