Name/Title"That's what we called Good Kitchen"
About this objectBooklet with cream coloured covers: '"That's what we called Good Kitchen": Wartime food memories, and a few newfangled ideas from the women of Fintry - a Tayside Health Board Area Nutrition Policy project in conjunction with Tayside Regional Council Community Education Service.' The introduction states: " The health of the nation as a whole actually improved during [the Second World War]. During the first months of 1993 a group of women in Fintry Community Centre worked together collating their wartime food memories, and cooking some of the recipes. Where nutritional ideas have changed we added some new recipes, or amended the recipes to suit. We believe that these ideas will be useful for a younger generation, trying to feed their families on a low income."
The women who took part in this project are pictured in the introductory page and named as: Elma Anderson, Leah Gow, Helen Black, Bella Tosh, Elizabeth Forbes, Bett Bennett, Jean Mitchell, Isobel Driver, June Anderson, Sheila Gray, Nessie Butchart and Anne Woodcock.
