yum, shallots...nothing like 'em, Grier!

Misc.
and I quite agree with June, a basic cookbook is invaluable. I have an old ratty copy of a Chatelaine basic cookery book that will no doubt be buried with me.

I came across a cute beginner-type cooking book at the library. It was fun and highly explanatory. If you access to a library, you will find lots of good books there, from the basic to the specialised.

The book I recommend to you is called "Cook this!, recipes for the good-time girl!"

I hope you like it, too.

best regards,

Carolyn!

p.s. yes, this is the perfect forum for any questions you may have.
