Re: (...)
I went to the bookstore (used) yesterday and they had stacks and stacks of new/used cookbooks. I picked up Gourmet's America, The Best of Gourmet 2006, and Culinary Arts Institute Encyclopedia Cookbook. The had a couple more The Best of Gourmet for different years, but I figured 3 at one time was enough. That Culinary Arts Institute book has lots and lots of recipes 970 pages with 6 or eight recipes on a page sometimes.
Don't wait too long to tell someone you love them.

those will keep you off the streets for a while, Billy!
Other than the 'Best of' they don't sound familiar - have fun.

It's a good thing I haven't found a used book store! We'd have to get another bookcase! Oh, but they are so much fun!

Those sound great! I'd be in trouble if I saw stacks and stacks of used cookbooks!!!
There is actually a Used Cookbook Shop in San Diego. I purposely have NOT been there yet. I have a real problem with wanting to buy too many. I suppose if I just left my CC's and ATM card at home and went in there with 40 dollars- that would be best. One of these days...
I got a cookbook for my birthday from my dear sister:
Kathy Casey's Northwest Table
It looks great!!
