PART 1: THE 1894 ASBURY METHODIST SOUVENIR & COOKING MANUAL, CROTON ON HUDSON

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

COURTESY OF THE CROTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY: THE ASBURY METHODIST SOUVENIR AND COOKING MANUAL -  In December of 1894, the Ladies' Aid society of Croton's Asbury Methodist Episcopal Church published a "Souvenir and Cooking Manual". It was reprinted by The Croton Historical Society in 1975 as part of the village's many Bicentennial of the American Revolution celebrations.

Some of the recipes will be published in the next VINTAGE COOKING & BAKING installment here at Everything Croton but for now, enjoy select scans from the booklet. Click on the photos. UPDATED SEE PART 2 HERE http://everythingcroton.blogspot.com/2014/03/part-2-asbury-methodist-souvenir-and.html
