  1. Hi, I found your blog about a month ago (through Permission To Mother's blog) and I plan on trying out some of your recipes, but I was wondering if you can post a blog on some good cookbooks that you would recommend that captures your 'simple, healthy and tasty' way of life. The ones I have tend to fall in the "country cooking" genre ~ not many vegetarian type dishes. Thanks.

  2. anonymous: you know I have lots of favorite books that I have read and learned from many of them even have some recipes. And I plan to post about them. Hopefully soon ;) But I really have not found a cook book that totally fits my Simple Healthy Tasty lifestyle. There are lots of good cook books out there that use only ingredients that I like. But most of the time I found them to be to complicated to prepare. To gormet if you will. That is why I came up with our family favorites cook book and started this blog. Mostly when I think something sounds good and I want to make it I search around for a recipe that is more close to being healthy then I healthify it! I also think it would be good for me to do a post about how you can take most any recipe and healthify it! Ingredient substitutes etc.
