I {Heart} Cookbooks!

I love getting a new cookbook--I'm like a kid with a new toy! I read it cover to cover and look at all of the pictures, thinking and planning when I could serve this or that, who I know that would like this recipe, or how I could modify that recipe to make it my own.

So, of course, the Whipping Up Something Good Cookbook Swap that I wrote about here, was a no-brainer. In my questionnaire, I indicated that I was really interested in Budget and Time Friendly recipes. So, I was so excited when I received The Deen Bros Take It Easy: Quick and Affordable Meals the Whole Family Will Love. I can't wait to get cooking--and in case you want to join in the fun, links to a few of the book's recipes are below! Thanks to Anabel for the great book and to Michel-Lee for hosting the swap!
