Book Love
My dear neighbor and friend was doing some housecleaning and asked if I would like to look over her cookbooks. Of course I said yes howdy! I love cookbooks and I probably have around 100 plus cookbooks in my home. I love to get inspiration from the recipes, plus it is a good read. Anyway, she was going through her late husbands books and wanted them to go to a good home. I was thrilled and honored that she gave them to me. What awesome books they are! Not only that, but a lot of them are signed by the authors. Her late husband ran a speciality cook store and had meet these chefs/authors. He was good friends with Jacques Pepin and knew Julia Child. How cool is that! I will always treasure the books. Now what to make first?

The cookbooks are wonderful! I, too, have far too many. But, they are so difficult to part with. I still have a sweet little book called Dinner For Two by Betty Crocker published in 1958. It brings back so many memories from when I was a new wife and thoroughly enjoying all the "domestic arts" as I still do to this day. Have a Great Day and thanks for sharing.
