Starting a Container Garden from Seed. Grow Light. Betty Crocker Cookbook. What’s Up Wednesday! We are taking our container garden to another level this year by starting our plants from seed. We got a Root Farm Grow Light so we can start the seeds in the house. It is time to start thinking about what we are going to grow in our container garden this year. We are also discussing the Better Crocker Cookbook! I recently got a copy of the facsimile edition of this classic 1950s cookbook. I can’t wait to dive into it! Happy Wednesday!

I really love your Kitchen Aid stand mixer in the background. Now comes my apology for missing the episode you may have introduced it. Can you please share where you purchased it? I really love the color.
Good morning Amy, I really love the joy of cooking cookbook.
What you will be growing in your container garden this year?
Oh Thankyou for this valuable information!! I did bring my basil inside one year and was able to keep it alive. But I see you with these gorgeous 😍hunks of herbs in the kitchen even more beautiful than is in the store. Priceless to be able to have them. And the 1950s cookbooks? I'm from that era and used to have them but moving around for so long I've lost them. I'm going to Amazon now. Thankyou Both!
I also collect cookbooks. So many old ones that are falling apart from all the use. 😉 I love everyone and still collect them.❤️👵🏻🐶
My Betty Crocker cook book is so old it doesn’t have a date in it. I think I got it about 1970 something and I wouldn’t be without it.
Hi Amy & Eric!!! I enjoyed your video today. I always enjoy cookbooks. I like the Root Farms. I may try growing some veggies in contsiners this year!!! Hope you both have a happy day. Take Care.
My Betty Crocker is not loose leaf and is a disaster. My grandson used to ask what page snickerdoodles was on and I would tell him just riffle through the pages until you see cinnamon on the page, Tomato smear on stuffed peppers page, flour on white sauce. I use it more than any other but I mostly get recipes from the web now. But it's interesting to see what I made by how messy I am and how poorly I wiped the pages but I know why because one page is worn ff from me cleaning it. Thank heavens I don't have to use grow lights…I start seeds and cuttings here after 2/13 (last frost) and use plastic mouthwash cups with potting soil on my screen porch. We had a freeze last night but Bill pulls all my orchids and herbs up on the porch landing and fires up a tent heater and they're fine. Good thing because half of them are blooming.
lol, Amy starting a "grow operation"… perhaps to fund all those mixers 😉
I actually have the 1958 Betty Crocker picture cookbook. It belonged to my grandmother. I still pull it out occasionally when I want to make a few of the recipes. I really don't use cookbooks anymore, but that book is an heirloom and priceless to me.
I love my Betty Crocker Cookbook! I bought my copy in 1986 and I still use it today! Do you know if there is a recent copy available?
I want the new updated Betty Crocker Cookbook from 2016 and the Picture Cook Book. My very first Cookbook in 1977 was a Rival Crock Pot Cookbook. Crock Pots had just come out the year before and they were the hottest gadgets for Christmas 1976 and I got one for Christmas! I no longer have that cookbook but have some several new Crock Pot CookBooks and I love them.
My first Betty Crocker cookbook I got in 1971 and I still have it .
You two are great. Eric if you need help with your farming. Check out Gary Pilarchik (The Rusted Garden ). His channel is very helpful. He helps with small container gardens to larger raised beds. Hope this help.
Cheers.
Hi, Amy. I have a Better Crocker cookbook from 1970! It is the one I always keep, as others may come and go. It says copyright
1969, second printing, 1970. There is a picture of of woman on the back cover. The made up Betty Crocker I guess. My mom had Joy of Cooking.
You need to show us your library upstairs.
Hi Amy , I really enjoy your videos ! Which cookbook between those 3 editions of betty crocker would you recommend the most ? Thanks
