Cook the Book: 'The Pioneer Woman Cooks'

The Cookbook Chronicles is great. Lorna posts about all sorts of food-related goings-on. PW's Tasty Kitchen is great for browsing everyday recipes.

I don't go there, because I can't eat the food

While I can completely sympathize with you over this menu and its poor execution, I'm surprised and disappointed at your lack of sympathy or compassion. You're a food professional - HELP this woman make a great party and serve palatable recipes. It truly is in your best interest if she is soon to be an in law! You may enjoy poking fun at her choice of recipes and lack of skill in cooking, but she at least attempted to put a meal on the table for some folks. Many more snobbish foodies or restaurant go-ers won't even attempt that much. They just buy their way out of it. Try to respect her sincere desire to provide a meal for a good sized group of folks and help her to make a better outcome next time. It doesn't have to come across as condescending or like you know it all. Just give her simple ideas for a simple, make ahead menu with true ingredients and you'll all survive the next party!

Tramontina Cookware - Good Stuff?

Tramontina's pots and saute pans are great. I have a very large stockpot from them that cost a fraction of my much smaller All-Clad stockpot, and I like it just as much. It's sturdy, heats evenly and cleans up beautifully. I also have a few of their non-stick skillets and love them too. The silicone handle cover slides off so you can use them in the oven as well. They've lived through years of not the most careful use here and have stood up very well.

Cook the Book: 'Giada's Kitchen'

I like a creamy, cheesy sauce (lighter than Alfredo, though) with chicken and vegetables of the season in it.

Cook the Book: The Cornbread Gospels

The best cornbread, other than homemade from a sizzling skillet in the oven, can be had at Max's Memphis Barbecue in Red Hook, New York. This area is certainly not a hotbed of cornbread eateries, but these folks have a great recipe and bring their cornbread to your table to enjoy as soon as you sit down in the restaurant. Great stuff!

Serious Eats and The Wicked Noodle. Looks like a lot of people like Smitten Kitchen, so I'm going to have to check that out!

http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/ is one of my favorites (along with SE, of course!) - her entire blog receives several visits a day from me as I check to see if there is anything new - I discovered this delightful site this summer - I've tried several of her recipes, and am smitten - I'd really love to win her cookbook!
