just found at the thrift store.

this book is a crack-up. my favorite menu:
filed under cocktail parties

Cold Hors-d'Oeuvres
assorted canapes
assorted cheese cookies
assorted cheese nuggets
king david squash
endive a la diable
endive romanoff
stuffed raw mushrooms
liver-pate aspics
caviar and cucumber aspics
miniature stuffed tomatoes
cucumber canapes
cigarettes*

*by the way, cigarettes  are as follows:
in a small bowl of an electric mixer, heat 8 ounces cream cheese with 1 tblsp. dried tarragon until creamy. cut 8 slices of prosciutto in half crosswise, or use 16 slices chipped beef. with a spatula spread cream cheese evenly on prosciutto or beef, roll up, and chill for one hour. cut rolls in half, and dip one end of each "cigarette" in very soft butter, then in finely minced truffle. arrange on a small rectangular serving dish with bouquets of parsley. 
what?
