I have uploaded more of Mom's recipes to my LJ Scrapbook account - all the ones I have scanned so far and plan to upload (some are clippings from books or commercial stuff; those I'm not uploading unless I have strong childhood memories of them).
All the recipes so far up can be found in this gallery.
Items of special interest (to me, anyway) among the new uploads:

Items of special interest (to me, anyway) among the new uploads:
- Fudge - the fudge Mom made at Christmas was EXCELLENT, and we almost never got to keep nearly as much as young-me thought we should. It is based on the Joy of Cooking but is richer than that recipe (even in Mom's copy of the book, which is 40 years old - and I believe the recipe in the revised isn't even as rich as that one). It's excellent, and it's probably not on any diet except as an indulengence. :)
- Spice Biscuits - very spicy, very tasty, and I loved them growing up in part because of the neat spice biscuit mold Mom had (and which I now have). When not in use, it hung on her wall (and hangs on ours) because it's pretty also.
- Buttery lemon squares - a delicious dessert from my childhood. Yummy.
- The fanciest cinnamon toast I've personally encountered, courtesy of my grandmother, Ruth Davidson. I don't remember having it much, or what I thought of it; the recipe just amuses me, and it was my grandmother's originally, so that makes it extra-special.
There's a fair bit of Mexican recipes in there, mostly on the last page. I was in the middle of that section when I left off the scanning, which I still need to resume.
