Resolved: I Will Blog More

At least I’m going to try. As I told Brad earlier today when trying to weasel a new blog design out him: “We are SO fascinating that the world MUST know about us!!” That’s hardly true, but at least I’ll be as cool as my dad, my brother, and my sister, all of whom have fabulous blogs (oh, and my husband, if you’re into the auto-immune thing).

So, first order of business: Which cookbook should I buy with my 20 percent off coupon code for Chronicle Books?

All Cakes Considered by Melissa Gray

The Good: NPR + Cake? Two of my favorite things so how could this be bad?

The Bad: We don’t eat cake. I guess my coworkers are going to reeaally love me if I get this one.

Tartine by Elisabeth Prueitt

The Good: Anybody who knows anything (and believe me, I barely qualify in that category) knows about Tartine Bakery. I could be a master baker in the making with this book in hand.

The Bad: We don’t eat baked goods. See above for note on coworkers.

The Bread Bible by Beth Hensperger

The Good: BREAD! If I could make bread like a master, then I’d be fully satisfied with my life.

The Bad: We don’t eat yeast.

Why doesn’t Chronicle carry a book with recipes to make fish not seem disgusting after eating it five times a week for three months straight? Now THERE’S a book I could sink my teeth into.
