Brag Books & Cook Books

I don't usually do this but I kinda can't help it. 

I have to show you this picture just in case you don't know my hubby.

Alright there is much I could say about this photo but let's get right to the obvious - 

that is an ENORMOUS Trout. 

I caught one a fraction of the size (see my last blog) & that was a fight. 

So I can barely imagine fighting & landing this lunker.

I am inspired by photos - like the one above & 

it is my main grievance against the average cookbook.

I have a pile of recipe clippings from Cooks Illustrated & Gourmet, and several other cooking magazines.

So after a bit of provocation from my spouse (the amazing guy pict. above) to
clean up the "recipe drawer"
that's right I have one... or use to.... I pulled out a spiral ring sketch pad, glue gun & favorite fabric scraps.
And Wa lah!

A new cookbook filled with picts. & recipes that inspire me.

And also just a really great way to have my "hard copy" recipes a bit more organized & accessible.

Happy Cooking!
