cook books

Don't know how many I do actually own but I know its probably close to 200, sometimes when I am feeling down I like to sit next to my bookcase at the bottom of the stairs and have a good long rummage and read of a few. I am mostly interested in Herbs and spices and the health benefits of such things if taken with food but it does depend on my mood. I have my baking days, bread mostly but biscuits and cakes also, then I have my casserole and stew days. If I had nothing else to do I would be quite happy spending one hour looking for ideas and then another couple of hours cooking what I had thought up.

I collect vintage cookbooks, and so far i have about 200 of them, most of them are from the early 1900's to about 1950. I usually find then at the flea market, or at garage sales where i can pick them up at a price that i can afford them.

Well i don't collect "collect " but i have already tens of cook books. I mostly check recipes from internet but still like to have books. I always buy one book when ever i go to a bookstore and if it is on sale then i buy 2-3 books. I guess i will be a collector in few years. Have a good day!

My mother seemed like to collect cook books,but i don`t think it necessary.I mean she is really a good cooker,she love to create special food by herslf,so the cook books is unuseful for her.
