I am desperately looking for a cookbook. It was ordered from a mail order company around the late 90's or early 2000's. I was in my late teens and my first ventures in cooking were recipes from this cookbook. Unfortunately, my mother gave it away without telling me and I...

Read moreAbout Me
I love food. Unfortunately, I can't cook worth a damn. I've been known to even burn water.
When I watch chefs and good cooks on tv, I'm so envious of their skills. This blog is the closest I get to cooking, other than the microwave ;)
Try not to drool!
