Ah well. I keep 'em cause I got them autographed (and Jamie's too -- he's darling in person).latebloomingmomhttp://www.latebloomingmom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8275808567357577735.post-73163897871153392522009-04-23T16:23:00.000-07:002009-04-23T16:23:00.000-07:00Tara--I couldn't agree more.

If you like to cook, though, you could check out the website Chocolate and Zucchini here: http://tiny.cc/ouyn8<br />She uses European measurements :)<br />P.S.

I like the Cooking Light magazine, too, but haven't yet tried their cookbooks. And your cookbook bookmark is adorable--and a great idea, for cookbooks or textbooks, or anything where you might need multiple markings--very clever :)Gentle Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09102364083044797155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8275808567357577735.post-62996199167002905042009-04-17T08:19:00.000-07:002009-04-17T08:19:00.000-07:00looove your friend's cookbook!

I love the Cooking Light cookbooks and magazines. I feel like I can eat mighty-sized portions and not feel guilty. :) I also really like the new bon apetite cookbooks. My fav is actually featured in the pics for my cookbook bookmark! It's here is you're interested in taking a look - I think it's adorable. :) http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23623561<br /><br />By the way, I LOVE the Mother-In-Law cookbooks - thats so sweet that you still get to read her notes!!!BookWormzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11182866961828230123noreply@blogger.com
