Cook the Book: 'Mrs. Rowe's Little Book of Southern Pies'
I'm definitely not the best baker in the world, but I try. Last Thanksgiving was my first attempt at making real pie crust, and it was mostly a success. I didn't let the dough firm up enough in the fridge, so it was difficult to roll out, and the crust wasn't fully cooked on the bottom b/c the crust was too thick. But the pumpkin pie filling was delicious and everyone seemed genuinely pleased with the results. It was not a total success, but I'm no longer afraid to make real pie crust, even w/o a food processor!

Cook the Book: 'Endangered Recipes' by Lari Robling
When I was little, my grandma used to make me a simple lunch of toasted cheese sandwiches with creamed corn on the side. She would toast the bread and then put the entire sandwich in the microwave to melt the cheese. I always thought that was such a novel way of making a cheese sandwich! The corn was always a little salty (from the can), but I remember that it all tasted sooo good.
Cook the Book: Eugenia Bone's 'Well-Preserved'
Pickles! My co-worker preserves the yummiest B&B pickles I've ever tasted!
Cook the Book: 'Tacos'
One of my most memorable experiences had to do with those taco kits that you can get in the store. My dad was in charge of cooking the meat, but he forgot to mix in the seasoning, so we basically ended up eating hard-shell tacos with ground beef. Because we didn't realize that he'd forgotten the seasoning until we dug into the food! I don't recommend it.
Cook the Book: 'Food Matters: A Guide to Conscious Eating'
