Pink, I love your cookbooks. They look so well-loved.... the best kind! I just got one dated 1954 that I remember my mom cooking from called Anybody Can Cook by Gwen French (Grrr, my other sister got this lucky falling apart family prize). I've already made a few things from it. With luck, one day mine will be as marked up as her's was.
As for precious items...
We don't have alot of old family things. My sister got most of the photos but I have always taken care of the silver and that is what I have. Just an odd assortment of butter knives, cocktail forks, spoons, souvenir spoons (my great-aunt was a collector), and (I believe) salt cellars but I treasure them all.
