Cookbook

I've had a food filled weekend (but actually didn't manage to eat much at all). I've been editing my cookbook. I'm on the 3 round. It is starting to look substantial in each section! YAY! It is also taking a herculean effort. The first 50 some pages has taken me all weekend. There are almost 200 pages. My goal is to put everything in and when we get closer to the final edits, I will start taking things out. At the moment, I am working to fill out some of the sections. For example, the vegetable sections have tons on brussel sprouts and green beens, but almost nothing else substantially. The great thing though, is many of the sections are really start to come together and look great, which is in turn inspiring me even more to come up with great recipes. Sifting through so many of my materials has also pointed out things here and there I have jotted down as notes, but never followed up on, allowing me to dig and find new recipes on breads, pastas, and vegetables and more that I wouldn't have been able to use before. So exciting!

It'll be a while before it looks "done", but in the mean time, I am super excited for my future in the realm of cooking!
