At one time, having company was a treat, a break from the normal tasks during our weeks. Sometimes a friend would drop by for a chat. Other times, there might be a small gathering arranged around a special event. And when we had people visiting, we served them tea or coffee or cold beverage -- and often, there was a plate or two of squares or bars. And other gatherings too, whether they were after church, a bake sale, or a Sunday barbecue, would often have a table set up with tea, coffee, drinks for the kids -- and a few kinds of squares to nibble on.

We still bake squares and brownies and so on, but a lot of the old favorites have disappeared somewhere in the past. Do you recall the old Pink Lady Squares with a layer of coconut and pretty pink icing? Or, speaking of pretty, the Old-fashioned Cherry Bars were a big deal at one point. Whatever happened to them? Well, in this new collection of vintage forgotten recipes, you will find them again or discover new old-fashioned favorites to try.
