it's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely

Spécialités de la Maison, published in 1940, is back in print and available for discovery.
This cookbook looks adorable and classy: bright hardcover, red & white cloth gingham case, various recipes from the likes of Dior, Mrs. Cole Porter, Katherine Hepburn, and it's affordable ($14)!
The only question I am pondering is: Will the recipes be uncomplicated and tasty so that a city girl could make them? However, I know deep down that whether the recipes are fabulous or not, this book is fashionable, there's a piece of Dior inside!
