October Thrifty & Estate Sales Finds Week #3 ~ #1 North Shore Congregational Church & Watkinsville Woman's Club

North Shore Congregational Church Cook Book, circa 1960's.  Recipes were contributed by members of the church located in Fox Point, Wisconsin. The proceeds from the book were earmarked for the church organ fund.  The usual fare found in church cookbooks is featured with many reflecting the German and Swiss influences of the area residents. A few of the more unusual entries include Scrambled Eggs for 70, which requires 96 eggs, yet takes a mere 35 minutes to cook. and a horrible sounding Corned Beef mold located under the Salad section.

The previous owner earmarked two coffee cake recipes that are similar, but with one featuring a strudel topping. 

Watkinsville Woman's Club Cookbook, published in 1982. Another cookbook from the next town over with recipes solicited from members of the club. The book is large owing to the fact that EVERY recipe submitted appears to have been published. There are numerous cheese ball recipes and a lot of the dishes appear to be duplicates. The recipes range from appetizers, entrées, vegetables and desserts.
