Several people have mentioned old cook books that are now individual (stained) pages, carefully kept together by love and scotch tape. Why not take the treasure to a bookbinder? For about $10 or so, he or she can rebind it, stamp the name on in gold and even pput your name on it if you like; and you don't have to worry about losing bits under the fridge. I rebound my old Joy; I had grown attached to it, and the recipes in the new one aren't the same. (In fact, the Joy has at least three generations, my mother raves about the tomato aspic in her Joy, and it isn't in mine. Her book is by the original author Irma Rombauer.) Rosemary Tanner
