Fool's Gold Cookbook



When I saw Love story on the book cover, I thought I'll skip the story and just go through recipes. I havent learnt how to cook Kale. After looking at the picture of Roasted salmon with Sweet Pepper and Kale stir-fry, I thought I should give it a try.
And then I just got reading into the chapters and thought may be it is a true story that ended in a wedding and thought how usually couples are given a cookbook full of recipes while these two pouring over recipes might end up a couple through the process of writing a cookbook. After a few chapters of brief pages, I though the writers accomplished the task of making believable characters and story in few pages.
And then I read of Susan Mallery and her series and characters. Now it all figures.
Tamale pie is a cool idea.
Banana Layer Cake
If you ever have leftover nonfat dry milk, you can make Home made hot cocoa mix.

She said that as she would shape the dough, it would spring back to its original shape. That makes me appreciate the complexity of dishes and the act of cooking. My neighbor impressed with my interest in he sweet, shared some Mohanthal with us. It is truly a sweet from heaven. I was reminded of a sweet from my marriage. Another neighbor quipped about the satisfactoin of eating when very hungry and not as much when you eat on time everyday, which resonated in the following lines of Charles Bukowski in  Wandering in the cage. "the best thing about near-starvation and hunger is that when you finally eat it is such a beautiful and delicious and magical thing. people who eat 3 meals a day throughout life have never really tasted food… "
