Betty Crocker, a cultural icon, is a brand name and trademark of American Fortune 3 corporation General Mills. The name was first developed by the Washburn Crosby Company in 1921 as a way to give a personalized response to consumer product questions.
A rice cooker or rice steamer is a self-contained tabletop kitchen appliance for cooking rice. There are electrical and gas powered versions. The term can also refer to a container designed for cooking rice in a microwave oven. Dedicated rice cookers date from the earliest of times.

i picked this up for $2.99 yesterday...someone had even left a few newspaper recipe cut-outs and extra Crisco recipe cards in there! (Pastries, Biscuits & Pies!) Some of the BC recipe cards are missing, a few good ones i might admit, like no-bake divinity, brownies, velvet cake, fudge cakes....bummer! Maybe i can find them online and save them!
I see a new challenge. Baking the "old school" recipes! =D
I do love a bargain....there is even special section for "Men's Favourites", "International Favourites" and "Dessert Spectacular!"
Tips from Betty Crocker
Just after we got married I received my Grandmother's first edition of Betty Crocker's Cookbook. I use it often, for a sauce or a sidedish recipe.
Tonight I was flipping thru while I started dinner and saw this and had to share!
( a quick pic inbetween cooking so not a great shot!)
I can't imagine what my husband would think if he came home and found me laying on the kitchen floor like this!
He would think I either had completely lost it, was abducted and returned by aliens , or that I had passed out!
