Silently pining for a cheeseburger, I sip my wine, look out on the pristine mountain view, and count the minutes until I can get back to my basement apartment in Witchita...

We know that deep down, you just want rubbery hamburgers and beer that tastes like shampoo. If you tip us well, we may be inclined to tell you where they are.

This was the first of the Pauper cookbooks I ever bought, out of a one dollar slush pile in a now defunct warehouse-sized used book emporium. Fifteen or so years later, I'm still not sure if these recipes were really meant to be taken seriously. (For example, I feel bad for the at-home cook who had to figure out the specifics of a direction like "Bake in two layers...") On the other hand, I always wished for somebody to animate McCrea's fabulous drawings. And I still do.

Other recipes: Stuffed Peppers "Ricci", Shrimp Creole, Saltimbocca Florentine, Squabs In Madeira, Shrimp Soup, Turkish Shish Kabob, Tetrazzini of Oysters, Tarragon Chicken, Veal Scaloppine, Veal Scaloppine With Mushrooms (?), Viennese Malakoff Pudding, White Mountain (candied chestnuts with brandy and heavy cream), and Zabaglione.

I always keep my pin cushion in the kitchen, just in case a "fowl" needs to be sewn up in a hurry, don't you?

"Next time you broil a steak, pour 1/2 cup of Burgundy over each side as it broils. Mixed with the juices, it makes a wonderful sauce!

"For a quick gourmet dish, add 1/2 cup of Sauterne to frozen Chicken a la King while heating...

"Baked apples flavored with Port Wine just before being removed from the oven have a special tang. Try wine in many of your old recipes! Cook dangerously!"

Readers' cooking tips from the August issue of Sunset magazine. The illustrator's name wasn't available due to some pages that were missing. But these are typical of the pics (almost always B&W or duotone) that appeared during the Fifties.

No poetic intro here. Also, way fewer illustrations per book than there were in the Fifties. Still some nice work, though. Front and back covers of a 62-page hardback, published by Peter Pauper Press, Mount Vernon, New York.
