My friend Hannah told me about her cookbooks and I've bought both of them (in print form as well as Kindle version because sometimes I want to plan meals from my iPad or work computer.) BONUS: the iPad version comes with added videos!
We planted a garden and while it was the hottest summer Iowa has experienced in years, it was a wonderful experience. We already have an 1800 sq. ft garden planned for next spring and my asparagus should arrive in the next couple of weeks.
The recipes: favorites so far - BBQ Jalapeno Poppers - from The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Recipes from an Accidental Country Girl and Mushroom Swiss Sliders with Spicy Fry Sauce from The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Food from My Frontier. We're also VERY fond of the Thai Chicken Pizza also found in the Frontier book. I've come a long way from living on lean cuisines and a big chunk of that success goes to Ree Drummond. Thank you for teaching me how to cook. :-)
This winter I'm teaching a class for our community college called Cooking with Pinterest and Evernote. This is how I have organized my personal recipe book and many great recipes can be found on Pinterest - or favorite cooking websites. This class will show students how to find recipes and organize them in an easy to find and edit format. I'm thrilled to have a work reason to work on this!
Time to go catch up on my recorded Pioneer Woman cooks episodes and get started on cobbler for family dinner tonight.
