About me: I love to cook, but have been slightly more pressed for time since my son has been born! When I can, I love to make pasta and expose Connor to lots of new tastes so he will love food as much as I!

Fare for Friends

By Fare for Friends Foundation
Key Porter Books - 1993

An excellent cookbook. You know you can open it and cook the recipe for company and be sure it will work out well. Our family uses this cookbook all the time, as do our friends.

The Gourmet Cookbook: More than 1000 recipes

By Zanne Early Stewart, Ruth Reichl, John Willoughby
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt - 2006

As with everyone else, this is an excellent cookbook. II often start here when looking for recipes. It has such a wide variety, and I find the ones I have used are quite versatile and forgiving if you change up the recipe. Great for basics and a starting point for creating your own meals (as well as lots of advanced recipes).
