Episode 9 - Dreamy Dinners Part III: Holiday Menus
Manage episode 452344094 series 3599492
Recipe for Sleep is a podcast where I read to you from very old cookbooks until you fall asleep. The holiday season can be both a time of wonderful recipes, and sleepless nights. So this week we slide back into Fannie Farmer’s 1914 tome “What to have for dinner.” Two episodes in, and we still have eight more menus to go in the Family Dinner section. Tonight, in honor of the holiday season, I’m going to skip ahead to page 101 where we’ll begin Dinners for Occasions. How much has Thanksgiving changed in the last hundred and ten years? A little. There’s turkey, for sure, but the pie is mince instead of pumpkin. The theme that survives the centuries is a shocking amount of food…would we have it any other way?
So, turn the lights out, put away anything you were doing, and snuggle deep into your sweet covers.
