I recently got a note from a woman who is moving and cannot take her collection of Gourmet Magazines along. She's trying to give away her issues from 1970-1998 and has found no takers. Any interest? Reach out and I'll connect you.
If an entire collection just seems like too much, here's a small taste of intriguing recipes from the October 1974 issue. I simply couldn't resist the allure of something called "Chocolate Chinchilla."
