Does anyone have any recommendations for finding an older 2001 issue of Better Homes and Gardens? I'm looking for a Pastry recipe featured in one of the issues (with the 1785 Inn Buleberry Pie) and none of the libraries in my area carry the older issues. I know you can sign-up and log onto the site but I don't see the logic in paying an annual subscription for just one recipe. Any thoughts or recommendations?

Read the questions on these boards. It will become abundantly clear that not everyone can follow a recipe. For what it's worth, I always vary recipes when I bake, and that would be why people consider me to be a good baker. The ability to customize a recipe to be exceptional, as well as the ability to make your baked goods beautiful is what sets apart the average from the great.

I just went on the site and could search recipes ( I don't subscribe). When I the box popped up asking for my subscription, I closed it and searched just fine. What's the name of the recipe?
