Party Potpourri: Parties & Menus, a community cookbook created by the Junior League of Memphis in 1971, has gained widespread acclaim and recognition in the South. While now out of print, this coveted book remains a valuable entertainment guide with over 500 meticulously tested recipes, ideal for any occasion, from children's birthdays to elaborate dinners and special events. Its diverse menu options, innovative invitation ideas, and party themes make it a go-to resource for any host or hostess.
The comb bound hardcover cookbook is in very good used condition. There is some light discoloring on some of the page edges--particularly on the top. No bent edges, tears and handwritten notes inside. The Southern Living Hall of Fame sticker is on the front. This is a copy from the eighth printing in 1993.

Originally created and used by women's groups for charitable purposes, these cookbooks contain valuable information on cooking techniques, kitchen tools, and household advice. They also serve as unofficial historical records, providing insight into the norms and values of the time period.
The first of these charity cookbooks in America, A Poetical Cookbook by Maria J. Moss, was published in 1864 to raise funds for injured Union soldiers during the Civil War.
Today, community cookbooks continue to be successful fundraisers for Junior Leagues, church groups, school organizations, hospital auxiliaries and other charitable groups across the country.
