I am so excited about this vintage Etsy find. (I'm am not sure where I have been, but the other day was the first time I searched
vintage Etsy! Oh the fun!) Having my own kitchen has made me excited about house-y, kitchen-y things. Etsy vintage has a lot of the kitchen stuff that I see at garage sales, thrift stores, and antique shops. The nice thing is that the pictures are so vivid and the descriptions are so fun to read. I love digging through piles of treasures, but it's also fun to search them by color and era!
I found this vintage French cookbook and had to add it to the Pixiepine arsenal. I am going to try and use the recipes by translating them one at a time. Anyone want to help ? ;)
The 1973 cookbook is called “100 Desserts, 50 Trucs” (“100 Desserts, 50 Tips”) and is written completely in French. The hot pink & orange graphics combo sold me too! I bought this book from an Etsy seller named
Fauxbrit13, who has been a delight thus far. Check out her
shop!

I can for sure help you out with the translations! The only thing I'm a little off with is the numbers and we'll have to convert from metric, but that can easily be done on the computer. Yay!
Dessert and drinks soon!
Cool find, but...
do you speak French?!?
I took one semester of French in college, and I watch lots of French movies :P
I've got a free version of Rosetta Stone and some very helpful friends! If I do manage a recipe that comes out well, I will be sure to post!!
How adorable! I love cute vintage finds too. Can you believe I've never checked out vintage etsy either???! I'm gonna go there now!
You are a brave woman for attempting to translate (and I'm assuming veganize) that whole book. I can't wait to see what you come up with.
