OT A week of food -my struggle Pen

[Guest guest]

I like your idea, I try to go through my stack weekly

and pull a few recipes out. As I file them I print a

few up too.

I'm not overwhelmed by cookbooks but I have heard this

before. It's always good to try our recipes, I think

we post easy to prepare meals with not having to

purchase 25 ingredients and it's nice to have a tried

and true recipe to work from. I have used many a

recipe that did not turn out good at all from a

cookbook, and also spent quite a bit on ingredients.

I will never forget this chestnut soup I made once.

Was it ever icky and I think I spent $25-$30!
