    I love cookbooks. But usually there are very few recipes I would actually eat. I’d have to say my favorite is a good housekeeping one. not because of the recipes it offers though. It was given to my grandmother when she and her husband of 50 years got married. It has her notes written in it for how they liked it, how she changed things around, and what she might try next time. I love that.

    The cookbook I most treasure is “The Joy of Cooking” It is my favorite because my step-Dad (a wonderful man–he married my mother when she was a widow with five kids) gave it to me. It is not the cookbook I refer to most often, however.
    I love all of my community (school, Church, Grange) cookbooks that I’ve acquired throughout the years. and, I really like my “Brand Name” cookbook that I bought years ago for less than $3 ;)
    Thanks for the giveaway.

    My face cookbook is the one my mom and grandma put together for me. My grandma died a couple years ago so, needless to say, seeing those recipes in her handwriting pretty much makes me cry when I use them but I treasure it so much. Plus, I’m so grateful that I asked her to write some of these recipes down so that I can continue making them for my family. :-)

    My mum has a great cookbook by the Australian Woman’s Weekly – I have no idea where she got it from because she’s not Australian, nor does she read Woman’s Weekly, but she’s had it ever since I can remember and it’s my go-to book for baking!

    My cookbook collection is actually quite sparse, I own maybe 5, 2 of which are Rachael Ray’s…not something I very proud of. So with that in mind, my favorite is probably the most classic…Julia Child’s Mastering the Art of French Cooking.

    I love Joy! So cool that you got to meet her – ahh if only she were coming to Minneapolis! My favourite cookbook of all time is Mark Bittman’s How to Cook Everything. I’ve learned SO much from it. Although for a more current book – I’m in love with Kim Boyce’s Good to the Grain.
