With Valentine's Day right around the corner, we wanted to share a sentimental artifact this week! If you're feeling homesick, did you think about cooking up a recipe from home? In similar fashion, the photos below feature a UF cookbook titled "Home Sweet Home: The University of Findlay Faculty, Staff, & Student Recipes From Home." Compiled in 2002 at the 10th Chairman's Barbecue, it is a compilation of recipes contributed by UF faculty, staff, and students. Each page is filled with recipes from different households, providing a taste of "home." It contains a variety of dishes, including entrees, soups, side dishes, breads, and even desserts!

Want to try a recipe?

If you are up to the challenge of making one of these dishes, please share it with us on Instagram (@ufindlayshaferlibrary) or email us a photo at library@findlay.edu. If you are interested in visiting the University Archives to see more UF cookbooks, email brigitte.galauner@findlay.edu to set up an appointment. We look forward to seeing your dishes!
