Stephanie's Home for Wayward (cook) Books




In his never-ending quest to empty shelves, clear closets and de-junk the basement, my Father-in-Law has been giving me cookbooks.

Lots, and lots, of cookbooks.

Here's the latest group, minus one from James Beard, about appetizers. It's already lost among our already-overcrowded shelves.

Do something frightful with your favorite appetizers and cocktails, and get your entries to me no later than Thursday, 25 October...hope to see you there!

- Blog Party#27: Halloween!!
October's here, brining along my absolute favorite holiday of all time: Halloween. I love all things Halloween. Dressing in costume, decorating the house, passing out candy to the munchkins, and producing endless quantities of black & orange-themed...
