The World's Saddest Cookbook

What's sad about a cookbook for one? I very much enjoy being single, plus I lke the idea of a desperate office worker turning to this for decent food!

From Serious Eats

Cook the Book: 'Nigella Christmas'

The best cookies I ever made was when I worked in a bakery in the mid-80s, when I was in college. I had access to all sorts of professional equipment. Haven't produced anything nearly as pretty since, cookie-wise, although I still ice a pretty mean cake.

Cook the Book: 'Bite-Size Desserts'

My favorite dessert is cream cheese pound cake from Rosie's Bakery cookbook. If I feel extra evil, I melt a Hershey's bar between two slices!

Cook the Book: 'What We Eat When We Eat Alone'

Field peas & snaps over rice, with a dash of green Tabasco sauce. A constant, satisfying, any-time-of-the-day-or-night meal since my husband passed away four months ago. He hated veggies.

Cook the Book: '100 Best Vegetarian Recipes'

Field peas & snaps over rice with a dash of green Tabasco sauce.

Cook the Book: 'Mrs. Rowe's Little Book of Southern Pies'

My greatest baking triumph: learning to make my own bread. I've eaten at Mrs. Rowe's (my cousin lives in Staunton) and EVERYTHING on the menu is fabulous!

Cook the Book: Eugenia Bone's 'Well-Preserved'

A decade ago I canned a cucumber relish that was beyond delicious. I'd love to expand my repetoire, especially now that I live in the country and have plenty of space to grow my own.

The Supposed Top 10 Worst Fast Food Campaigns of All Time

How dare Westwood speak ill of the spongmonkeys?!?

I haven't liked any Quiznos campaign since. As far as I'm concerned, the spongmonkeys should have been appointed permanently.

Cook the Book: 'Kneadlessly Simple'

I love making regular white bread in my breadmaker.

Help! Coffee withdrawal

Thirding the Excedrin Migraine -- it's a lifesaver.

Cook the Book: Jamie at Home

Creamed spinach. Lots of cream, garlic & parmesan cheese. Yum!

From Serious Eats

Cook the Book: 'Second Helpings of Roast Chicken'

I use sea salt in everything. It's so much better than regular table salt.

Bagged salad greens always go bad on me. I eat one salad and don't want another one for a few days ... by which time the bag has gone slimy.

From Serious Eats

Cook the Book: 'The Cook's Country Cookbook'

I used to always make mac & cheese from the Black Family Reunion cookbook, but recently I've been asked to bring my Texas-sized chocolate cupcakes.

From Serious Eats

Cook the Book: Serves One

Breakfast food -- a scrambled egg & cheese sandwich and grits, along with a simple tossed salad if I have a bag of the pre-mixed stuff.

From Serious Eats

Cook the Book: The Sweet Melissa Baking Book

Sour cream pound cake with raspberry sauce -- perfect!

From Serious Eats

Cook the Book: Nigella Express

Cooking large quantities in the crockpot -- we have two -- which means that we have a lot of leftovers. Makes life easier for two empty-nester middle-agers.

Serious Easter Artisanal Chocolate Egg Giveaway

I'm glad I'm not the only one voting for ham, although the bread pudding with bourbon sauce sounds wickedly wonderful.

Cook the Book: 'The Vegetable Dishes I Can't Live Without'

Creamed spinach. I prefer it during the winter, but let it cool during the summer and eat it like a cold cream soup. ALWAYS good!
