I got a Good Housekeeping magazine from January 1966 because, quite honestly, I love them. It’s a good thing they are cheap (when you can find them).
I also love to try new recipes out of vintage magazines. Recipes like … say … Golden Fruited Meat Loaf.

No, it isn’t staring at you. Those are actually prunes. Here, I’ll show you.

I use the phrase “meat loaf” in the strictest terms. It is made of both veal and pork. Why do I call it the ADD Meat Loaf though? Because it also has sweet potatoes, prunes, green beans, and almonds. I can imagine serving this to my family, “Mooooooom, my dinner is staring at me! I’m scared!” And my husband yelling, “Don’t stomp on it, it isn’t a giant insect. It just looks like one.”
Nothing says gourmet, though, like curled up hot dogs served with bow tie pasta. Especially if you call it a Saucy Frank Dinner.

Aaaaaand … a close up.

Remember, nothing says you love your family like serving them a gourmet meal! And nothing screams gourmet like curled up hot dogs sprinkled with parsley.
(Okay, I am not making this up. I was just proofreading this and Meat Galore comes in and says, “Are you gonna make that hot dog thing? It looks really good.”)
Give me the recipe. I’ll make it for the poor boy.
How exactly does one get hotdogs to curl?
Ick. the Frankfurt one reminded me of someone’s inside. ick ick ick.
I love vintage magazines too and I am VERY creeped out by those meals LOL
