I've been going to bed earlier every night. So, I've been getting on the computer when I'm done watching TV to help me stay up later. It's only 8:18 and I feel like I could fall asleep any moment. It also means I will be awake...

My first ever cookbook

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52144) • Staten Island, New York 8 Dec 23

I don’t generally like to follow recipes when I cook so I never bought a cookbook. Until now. Knife Drop by Nick Digiovanni —a former Master Chef contestant turned social media star and chef—is my first ever cookbook. Gordon...

Do You Like to Cook?

LindaOH @LindaOHio (222222) • United States 4 Sep 23

Analysis suggests that the early hominids may have started cooking as early as 1 to 2 million years ago. Analysis of burnt bone fragments and plant ashes from a cave in South Africa give evidence that early humans controlled fire...

Cookbooks To Review

Leiann Lynn Rose Spontaneo @Spontaneo (14699) • United States 22 Nov 21

When I write book reviews, I especially like to review cookbooks. I learn so much, even from cookbooks meant for children. Then, I love Crock-Pot cookbooks. However, tonight, I thought, why not Sicilian cookbooks or even...

What Type of Books Are You Reading Lately?

Leiann Lynn Rose Spontaneo @Spontaneo (14699) • United States 3 Oct 21

I like to accomplish children's cookbooks reviews. I believe that children should be taught how to cook when toddlers. Cooking is a forever skill. I learn things myself from such children's cookbooks. They are short, sweet and...

How many cookbooks does one chef need?

Judy Evans @JudyEv (381741) • Rockingham, Australia 17 Mar 21

I wrote about going through our many glasses and deciding what to keep and what to donate. The next big chore was to go through our recipe books. As you can see from the photo, we have A LOT. Nowadays, or course, it’s easier to do...

Do you have these in your part of the world? Many times these spiral bound books are produced as a fundraiser. Churches, youth groups, cities, campgrounds, ... just about any organization you might imagine, even families will...

The Morning

Leiann Lynn Rose Spontaneo @Spontaneo (14699) • United States 30 Nov 19

I started out the morning not knowing what coffee I wanted for the iced coffee habit. I am very picky about coffee! So, I got out Peet's French Roast and then Dollar Tree French Vanilla. I am satisfied for now. My office has...

Do you use cookbooks when you cook?

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52144) • Staten Island, New York 29 Jul 19

Usually, when I cook I do not follow recipes. I just do whatever pops into my head. I may google recipes just to know the cooking time of something or maybe the temperature at which took cook something in the oven. I find it more...

Update On My Scottish Scones

Hate2Iron @Hate2Iron (15724) • Canada 18 Feb 19

I finally got to taste the scones that I made Saturday morning. I was the first one up, so decided that it was not going to be cereal this morning but a nice wedge of the scone instead. I had to substitute raisins instead of...

Do You Follow Recipes?

Hate2Iron @Hate2Iron (15724) • Canada 10 Jan 19

I have to admit that I do unless except in some instances when I can reduce the sugar. Usually no one notices and I like the fact that I'm cutting back in an area that we don't need the extra anyway. My husband never even uses a...

Favorite kitchen gadgets? A favorite cookbook?

GreatMartin @GreatMartin (23670) • Ft. Lauderdale, Florida 15 Sep 18

I know one shouldn't talk bad about one's mother or disrespect a parent or say anything against the dead but there is no getting around the fact that my mother had to be one of the worse cooks anywhere! Whether it was eggs or...

Want to cook like Grandma used to?

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104615) • United States 21 Jul 18

I just came across this site that has gathered a database of digitally accessible cookbooks from as far back as the the 1700's (maybe earlier). There is also a link for other language cookbooks. I thought it might interest some...

Where's The Peanut Butter Cookie Recipes?

Teresa Trotter @teresatrotter (4073) • Jacksonville, Florida 3 Jun 18

This is crazy... I have so many cookbooks, some of you would probably slap me. However... So far... Not one of them has a peanut butter cookie recipe in it. I mean... Even the cookbook: "How To Cook Everything", does not have a...

Strange Things Available for Purchase Series: WWF Cookbook

April @thislittlepennyearns (68157) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 15 May 17

Before the WWE was the WWE it was known as the WWF, and since I am assuming at least a couple of you clicked on this thinking it was a World Wildlife Federation cookbook (which would kind of be equally as strange), you can...

marguicha @marguicha (230331) • Chile 13 Jan 16

Some years ago, when I had visitors, I spent a long time reading recipes from several cook books I have. I specially disliked when I finally thought I had what I needed, but then the cook book sent me to page so and so for part...
