I would like to blame Booko and the Book Depository for increasing the size of my library, but it is simply that I love cookbooks! I love the covers and the look of them, I love everything about them!
I also discovered whilst unpacking that a lot of the books I have I've either never made anything out of them or its been so long that I don't remember what I cooked.
So, I decided to set myself a challenge. Every week, for however long it takes, I am going to make at least one thing out of every recipe book I own... To clarify, I'm picking one cookbook a week and doing a recipe from that.
I've got a few rules:
Rule 1: I can't cook something I've cooked before
Rule 2: I can't just cook from my new books, the old ones need to be used as well
I think that's about it?
Be warned, I have a tendency to waffle, but I shall try to keep it short. I also tend to loose interest really quickly so I'll need to keep motivated, also I have no idea what I'm doing so you may need to bare with me :)
But anyway, this is just the introduction so I better get started cos this may take a while :)
Thanks
Kate

PS: Below is a photos of some of my books, the recipe books are in the middle shelf :)
