Cooking Cookbooks - I Love Them!

The chef cookbook, it's like, Oh, I know you've been to this restaurant. I'm going to buy you this cookbook. And they're these just like $40 gigantic coffee table things. So nothing makes me happier than seeing cookbooks that are like dog-eared and have food stains in them. It's like accidental scratch and sniff that comes after the fact. That drives me crazy. The amount of time and energy that it takes to make a really good cookbook is it's like a two year commitment of your life that you spend a ton of energy on...It means a lot to me.
