bygone days

Yesterday at the Goodwill I found this old Watkins recipe book. It was only $1.99. I remember Boyd Ott used to sell Watkins products in Middletown. You can now buy a few Watkins items at Walmart.
The cook book is marked and falls open right at this page. It belonged to Mrs. George Fijalka and was published in 1936. I wonder which of these pies the Fijalkas enjoyed the most often. I wonder where they lived.
This childishly handwritten recipe was in between the pages.I love finding things like this, makes my day.
