Are you using RECIPE BOOK when you are cooking?

Do you cook some recipe that come from a recipe book? Why or why not? Why do you want to learn how to cook that came from a recipe book? In my case since I want to learn how to cook particularly with pure vegetables, I am just getting the idea from the recipe book that my brother bought it from the mall by the time it was sale. I mean he just grabbed it. Since most of us are in the process of dieting of course we want to cook something unique that contains vegetables. But there are times that we are cooking diferent kinds of pasta that is coming from a recipe book also and we've already tried the seafood pasta with shrimps. However there are times that the recipe came from the forum and I've already tried cooking Charlie Chan pasta (taste like a Thai pasta). I've also tried cooking the Vodka pasta but this recipe came from internet also or just a blog. What about you? what do you usually cook that comes from the recipe book? Are you repeating it? Do you cook that for your everyday meal or occassionally only?
