My Thoughts:
Cookbooks are to me like home design magazines are to my girl friends. I love just looking through cookbooks and drooling over the recipes. Some of them I look at and think, naw.. that one I will wait and enjoy at a restaurant while others I can’t wait to try to create at home.
In the Most Requested recipe cookbook, my thought was that they asked my crew what our favorite things to make were and put it together for us! Just kidding but so many of the things my crew enjoys are in this book. Some of the recipes are just about the same as what my gran taught me growing up while others are very different. It’s neat to look through them and find dishes that I enjoyed as a child but don’t have the recipe now.
And who wouldn’t like 365 Days of Cookies? Isn’t there a saying.. “A Cookie A Day…” No? Well there should be! Making cookies brings back childhood memories for most of us. If cookies are something that your crew loves, this is a list of cookies that you can make every day for a year.
