Long-time followers know I always smirk when I see copies of this book languishing on thrift store shelves. (Here's a previous post about it.) So many bought the book, so many have discarded it ....
Go check 'em out on AnnArbor.com:
Yesterday: Moroccan Bread Salad
Today: Vegetable-Stuffed Baked Yellow Squash
"floo·zie \ˈflü-zē\: a usually young woman of loose morals." Thus a Food Floozie is not a woman who can be seduced by virtually any man, but rather a woman who can be seduced by virtually any food (other than sushi).

lol... I see that book in thrift shops all the time too! Makes me giggle :)
Love the Moroccan bread salad... mmmmmmmmm!!! (I tried to leave a comment on AnnArbor.com, but for some reason I couldn't get it to go through...)
This is kind of funny. I like that it's become kind of a game to you now.
Hmmm. I bet it doesn't make Rosie chuckle. ;-) Be sure to let me know if you see any Barefoot Contessa cookbooks at the thrift shops. Although, I have noticed that after using about 5 of her recipes I think I'm starting to look a bit like her. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea after all.
I have never heard of it, of course people in South Texas don't really read and people in Utah are notorious for holding onto their crap. :)
Guess what book I will be looking for from now on when I visit thrift shops :)
I see those quite often myself...although not as many as you seem to have found. I still have my book downstairs; but, I never get rid of cookbooks even if I never use them.
Interesting. I don't recall ever seeing it in thrift shops or garage sales around here. I'll have to start looking..
I feel bad, like I should go buy a copy of it. Maybe not.
