Another Day

For two minutes, lovers or comrades, to spend a quiet evening with a magnum, drinking no aperitif before, nothing but a glass of cognac after-that is the ideal...The worst time is that dictated by convention, in a crowd, in the early afternoon, at a wedding reception.-New York Vogue, Evelyn Waugh, 1987.
It's not so easy writing a book. I got my 1st five pages done and since then I have blanked out. I will persevere.
You know all of those spiral cookbooks that are used for fundraisers. I sell lots of them on my EBay site-Valerie2901 or look under a general listing-cookbooks. People tend to overlook these books and there are some real gems of recipes in there. Sometimes handed down family recipes, sometimes from contest winners-all worth scavenging for the perfect new recipe to try. Here a just a few of the ones I'm selling:
What's Cooking At Saint Mark's by St. Mark's United Methodist Church in Carmel, IN
The Epiphany Preschool Cookbook from Vienna, VA
A Haven of Delights for Child Haven, Las Vegas, NV
Culinary Capers-Volume Two for the Nursing Division, San Luis Obispo County Health Dept., San Luis Obispo, CA
Look for more cookbooks like these in my next blog.
The GA Dept. of Revenue is still auditing me, but they are being very nice about it. I don't know about you, but doing my taxes always sends me into full panic mode. I know I don't ever owe anything, but still...
