Today was the bi-annual library sale at the San Leandro library.\u00a0 As usual, I got there early and headed straight to the cookbook section.\u00a0 It’s been a while since I was able to get a really<\/em> good book, but pretty much all my collection of ethnic cookbooks comes from there.\u00a0 I tried not to buy too many books this time, because I really have nowhere to put them.\u00a0 This is what I got:<\/p>\n

– Ben & Jerry’s Homemade Ice Cream & Dessert Book<\/a>\"\".\u00a0 I already have this book, and I LOVE this book, but my copy is all dirty and messed up from years of use.\u00a0 The one I found at the library is practically new. It was a birthday gift to someone who was to use it as a menu for other people to make her ice cream.\u00a0 I know because the note explaining that is still in the book \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

– How To Cook Everything: Simple Recipes for Great Food<\/a>\"\".\u00a0 Another book that doesn’t seem to have been used by its previous owner.\u00a0 Understandable, this is the type of book a beginner cook would gravitate towards, and then realize they don’t want to cook after all.<\/p>\n

– A Taste of Provence: Classic Recipes from the South of France<\/a>\"\". I’ll never get to the “Ps” on my international food project<\/a>, but I can hope.<\/p>\n

– Flavours of Hungary<\/a>\"\".\u00a0 I do have a chance of one day reaching the “Hs”, I believe.<\/p>\n

– Art of Lithuanian Cooking<\/a>\"\". And if I reach the “Hs”, why not the “Ls”?\u00a0 Plus I had a dear friend in college whose parents were Lithuanian. Dahlia, if you ever see this blog posting, e-mail me!.<\/p>\n

And that’s it.\u00a0 Not bad for 5 bucks. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
