Very often an appeal to the
imagination will help to sell good
things, as with "Grandmother's cook
ing:"
l had loved in my childhood to con-
coct good things to eat from the
recipes In my grandmother's cook
book. and soon was called upon by
my friends for cakes and desserts. pies
and buildings. I got up little cir
cular and sent 1t out, giving prices
and names of specialties. and heading
it with picture of grandmother, In
her spectac,es and cap, making cake
at the kitchen table.
The first day that the circulars were
out received orders for pound cake
made after my great-gTandmother's
recipe | made il in a variety of
shapes some round like snowbails
and frosted with white, others in the
shape of Irish potatoes and rolled in
cinnamon. This pound cake proved
my best seller and next to this came
gold and silver cake and an old
fashioned sponge cake. from recipe
handed down in our family for gen.
erations. l made a particular point
that nothing should come from my
kitchen unless L prepared 1t myself,
