Jamie and Jaffrey

... I recently posted this on my other blog and thought I'd share it here too ...

... some cookbooks I've recently checked out of the library ...

... this first one is Cook with Jamie ...

... Jamie Oliver ...

... you know him ? you love him ? yeah, me too ! ...



... his cookbooks are so informative ...



... so inspirational ...



... so practical ...



... so pretty ...



...so colorful ...



... not to mention yummy ...



... this cookbook is a one of my favorites ...

... i have checked it out a number of times & one day will probably buy it ...

... the funny thing is, there is not ONE picture inside of it ...

... usually i don't even look at cookbooks if there are no pictures ...

... but this one ...

... read some of the recipe titles and tell me you don't get a picture in your head ...




... drool ...



... salivate ...



... a bit more drool ...

... seriously ! ...

... i love this cookbook ...

What is your all time favorite cookbook ?

Can you even choose ?

How about your favorite cookbook author ?

Is that easier ?

Some inspiration for all you awesome cooks out there!

I posted this on my own blog, but it seemed like it should go here too!



I am now the proud owner of, not just a cookbook, but THE cookbook.
Julia's cookbook.
A small, but tasteful, shrine has been erected in my apartment to Mrs. Child.
and to butter.

Making mayonnaise...from scratch.

Garlic Soup

The beginnings of ratatouille. I love all the colors.

Finished ratatouille. Sooooooo yummy!

Chicken, simmering in butter. And garlic. And heaven.
I would be perfectly happy to eat my own shoes if they were prepared this way!

Thanks for joining me on this little food/photo fest.
Now wipe the drool off your face and have a great day!
