      There were several “Bettys” over the years. I think there were women who were hired to be the face of Betty & many more “invisible” Bettys who answered the mail as Betty.

    Hi Anna. Love love you. I am living vicariously through you. I am 86 and have been a foodie all my life. In my youth my idols were Betty Crocker and. Local Seattle woman Bea Donovan who was the first women to have her own cooking show on tv circa 1950. I also have collected cookbooks. I had to downsize a few years ago so thank you for sharing yours with me. Wish we could just sit down and visit sometime!😊❤️😸Marie Cory

    Oh my goodness! The French Breakfast Puffs are a huge childhood memory for me! I pulled out my copy of my mom's recipe & it is identical to these. I have written on my recipes where (& who if possible) they are from. Someone had given it to Mom in Omaha, NE so it. would have been '64-'68. I remember so vividly being in the kitchen while Mom baked these & rolling them in the butter & cinnamon sugar. I can even taste them & that little crunch... OK. Now I need to make these.

    When I was newly married I went through a matchy-matchy phase, we bought at the height of a housing shortage and our house was super ugly with a weird floor plan so in an effort to put lipstick on that pig, I went ultra modern. We were able to sell it at a nice profit and moved cross country to a huge 1860 brick farmhouse with a wonderful floor plan. So all my modern sleek kitchen stuff is in our barn, still in moving boxes as I scour antique and vintage shops for vintage bakeware! Your collection is beautiful and quite impressive. It seems to me that everything looks more appetizing in old Pyrex! Thank you so much for your great videos!❤

    My mom gave me four Blue Heaven plates and a matching serving bowl to help me set up my household when I was first married 54 years ago. We still eat off the three plates that have survived and the bowl has a chip in it but we still use that too. I think she got them at some kind of supermarket give away as she always used Fiesta Ware for our everyday dishes. My kids always referred to them as the Jetson Plates and we call them that to this day, lol!

    For the peaches, I might mix nutmeg and cinnamon to sprinkle over, more like peach cobbler-esque. Gosh I just love watching your videos! Some are nostalgic, some give me great ideas to mix up the regular weekday meals, and some I use for decadent weekend treats. The only problem is I walk away hungry after watching.

    I am a confirmed nutmeg hater, so I wouldn't use it or mace for the peaches. I think cinnamon would work instead. I really liked the way they're prepared.
