DAILY RECIPES BY CALENDAR

As an ongoing feature here, I will add to this each day the recipes out of several books I have that are dated or from calendar books

A small leather covered calendar book from Burlington Vermont dated 1875.  It has all kinds of lovely handwritten dessert recipes; the front of the book has an overview of each month and a predictive weather chart, the difference of tie between Boston and New York, the value of gold and silver at the time and other interesting things like rates of postage. 

The list of names for the people who contributed recipes for these books are listed here;
