Where do you get that cookbook? Do most of the recipes really taste good? Sounds promising!
I found mine at Costco last Christmas time. I have seen at the bookstores though. It is a binder type cookbook....lets see full title The America's Test Kitchen Family Cookbook. I love, love, love it. The other night I was going to make sloppy joes for my kids and I didn't have any sauce mix. Well what do you know I found a recipe in there for it and it was quick and easy and tasted awesome. It also gives tips on pans, why some ingredients work better than others etc....
Just about everything I have tried I have loved. The only one I didn't really like was their pot pie one, I think I screwed something up with the sauce It just didn't work out right. But other than that everything has been great.

Reason: Added something
I love to try and come up with new tastes, recipes-it's a challenge. I did it more when kids where home. America's Test Kitchen has some great recipes.
What is it about the smell of vegetable soup cooking on the stove that creates the aurora of hearth and home?
That and a loaf of bread in the oven.......
OK I just ate lunch and now I'm hungry!! No ideas for supper at this point...I might just skip it and pick up some fish-n-chips & big salad for everyone.

This is exactly what I do! I hate it!! Chicken nuggets for my son, something for hubby, a vegetable at least we all can share and then something for me (usually rice dish of some kind).

Looks like omelets tonight.
Tomorrow night-NJ pizza-yes!
I envy you, my mouth is watering for some good pizza!!!
You are right here...a lot of how a kid acts in school depends on how his/her home life is. I sure appreciate people like you who do the extra effort to work with this age of child. It sure isn't an easy age for anyone!!
I also know what you mean....my son went through it in middle school..now
he's a senior, brown belt in thai kwan do, captain of the varsity wrestling team (his coach is awesome)and is planning a on going into law enforcement. (Federal fish and game) but first he will have to be a police officer for serveral years.( I'm bit concerned about that but what can you do?)
Back to food.....now that I don't feel as sick as a few days ago....
tonight we are having Italian wedding pasta.
thanx for the get well wishes, cynwildkat & denise in Fla. ( my uncle bob lives in Ocala)
