I love cookbooks!!! Does anyone else?



I have the Betty Crocker one... the Better Homes and Gardens one, but my very favorites are the ones from the schools and churches that members/staff/families put together with their favorite family recipes..



I have one form the Catholic church here that has a recipe for HASH.. it is called Kelly's Hash and the only thing I didn't have in the pantry was the kitchen bouquet....



ANYONE?

The world's largest cook book is right here on the Web. Salmon for dinner???

Do a Google Search on Salmon Recipies and just look at the hundreds of hits. Want to cook a fast meal??? Do a search on 15 minute dinners. Roast Beef meal for eight??? Famous French Dishes??? Whatever you like.

God I'm old I have had two of those, my gran used to make Beef Tea if we were ill, and roast leveret I have cooked my self although we don't get many hares here any more, and it's not because they were shot out of exsistence it's because all the fields have houses on them.

I come back to my favourite foodie question, Have you, or would you ever eat TRIPE!!!!!!
