Microwave Cooking for One!

From the appearance of the cover (hair, clothes, appliance), this book is from the late 70s/early 80s when microwave cooking was more of a novelty than it is today. Today it's taken for granted, and sometimes considered sad and lonely!

But the woman appears thrilled at her microwave conoisseur status!

I agree that microwave cooking is not fun and that cooking is a pleasure where you are sharing your cook. Cooking for one, hmmm sad !

Microwave cooking is not really good for health, maybe it's why I associated your practical book to another one. It's a sad book used by a profession where an employee can be fired if he smiles or laughs. So, I believe that it's a good release candidate for the price of the saddest book ever published. It's called "The Embalmer's Manual, Funeral Etiquette, Etc." and was published in St. Louis at the beginning of the 20th century. Even the wikipedia photo is sad and this book is bad embalmed... feeling sick sorry, bound :
