Fairies at the Bottom of my Garden? More like Dwarfs!
Some of you know that I'm a big Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs fan! I have been since I first saw the Disney movie in the theatre as a child. I have two sets--and a few extra--cement Disney dwarfs and Snow Whites in my garden. One set is painted (but peeling), the other is paint-free. I like to think of the dwarfs as working in my garden, tending the plants, complaining, and sleeping. The statues were made in the 1950s. I found them at various estate sales and flea markets.
Here's a page from the Snow White Dairy Recipes booklet. I love the recipes for Orange Butter Spread and Honey Butter. Sneezy's Orange Butter Spread is great on toast. I use Sleepy's Honey Butter on lots of things from waffles to Dutch Babies to bagels. Yum!
The Booklet came out in 1955 as an advertising premium for the American Dairy Association. The name and logo of the local dairy sponsor was printed or stamped on the back cover, but some books have no markings. It's a slight booklet--5 x 7 with 14 pages. Lots of fun recipes! I see the booklet's at the Flea Market, and, of course, they're for sale online.
