My terribly belated Valentine's gifts...well, actually, not so much as gifts. I had them in my wish list and my husband thought it would be a good time to get me these books (erm, actually just joined this discount book club and to make himself feel less guilty for buying HIS books, he bought some for me as well...*sigh* so to kill two birds with one stone!!). As for me, I'm happy that I got them.....regardless the intentions....hehehe..
My favourite is the Boulevard: The Cookbook. It's fantastic and I'm dying to try out of the recipes. I can't wait to go to the store to get all my ingredients. It will be interesting since some of these recipes takes a little skill and TIME!! LOL!
I think the "simplest" book to follow is Jamie Oliver's Jamie's Dinners. It's easy and looks soooo tasty and so family friendly!! I love it!! I had tried out 2 of the recipes there (both desserts) and both hubby and son loved it. Plus the fact that the desserts were sweet (too sweet for me). I can't wait to try out more of them!! I had the whole book so laddened with tags that Ed asked why I even bother, I might as well just save the tags and use them to mark those that I wouldn't be trying out sooner!!! WHATEVER!!
The other two books were just as amazing, I just didn't have enough time to scrutinize them enough! hehehe.. My next book would be Batali's books....I think it would be interesting espeically now that I'm into making my own pasta. I think his book would be helpful...
For now I'm seriously contented with these wonderful "gifts" even though they were given under a different motive!!! ;)
