Confession time

Okay, seriously I have this weird little addiction. I am in love with cookbooks. If you know me, you know I do not cook. Well, I cook, but not big fancy meals that are presented in cookbooks. I would love to cook, like the big fancy meals in the cookbooks, but for some reason, I just never make the time.

Every year I write on my "resolution" list that I am going to learn to cook, and every year I don't. So this year, I didn't set it as a resolution in hopes that perhaps maybe I will cook!

I took this cookbook out of the library yesterday, just to see if I liked it. I had been to friends house last week and noticed she had it in her kitchen all on display. She is an amazing cook, so I knew it had to be good if she used it! It's called The Barefoot Contessa at Home. I love it. The pictures, the writing, and the recipes look sooooo yummy! I was then at Costco today, low and behold, they have 3 more of her books there! Ohhh, I was tempted. I stood there poring over each one wondering which one would be the cookbook that will change my life and make me a fabulous cook. I realized it wasn't the actual cookbook that would make me wonderful, so I put them down. And walked away. Without one. I still have the one from the library that El and I spent nearly an hour this evening going through.

One day. I will cook you a fabulous meal.

Okay, maybe just a dessert, or fancy sandwich.

Much love
