Ever since I moved to New York I’ve realized how much I enjoy cooking. I find chopping fresh vegetables and prepping ingredients to actually be quite soothing. Preparing dinner has become the perfect antidote to having a hard and long day at the office.
Now just because I love to work my magic in the kitchen doesn’t mean that I’m signing up to be a contestant on the next season of Top Chef because I am far from that. In fact, I can’t even get my husband to eat any of my dishes, but that’s another story. So in an attempt to perfect my culinary craft, I’ve started collecting cookbooks.
Every BG should have at least 2 tried and true cookbooks that you can refer to when you want to try whipping up a new dish or find great menu ideas for your next dinner party. You know we BGs love to entertain! So get off the couch or in this case out of your chair and take a visit to your local Borders or Barnes & Noble and start browsing the cookbook section.
Here’s one of my favorites. It’s packed with dozens of tasty and easy recipes. 
Available at www.amazon.com for $19.77

Interesting. I feel exactly opposite with regard to cooking. For me it is yet another thing on my to-do list. I must admit, I’ve never tried using a cookbook. Perhaps it might make it a bit more pleasant but I doubt it.
