1. Probably an old Betty Crocker one. Lots of timeless recipes.
2. I‘m going so say.. technically, yes but officially no. I don‘t care for hotdogs so people‘s passion about this topic is hilarious.
3. Nigella Lawson
4. I like to dip grilled cheese in ketchup. 😋

JoScho Thanks for playing 😋❤️🌭 6y

Found this on #Waterstones's FB. Its Nigella's #Shelfie. We all wish it was ours 📖📚

drokka Most of those are just cookbooks. I believe her non-cookbooks are in a different room (read that in an article recently). 7y

Tried pan fried Hallumi with homemade sweet chilli today from Simply Nigella. Tbh, it wasn't as flavoursome as I expected from her descriptions.

Banana bread with cardamom and cacao nibs for a brunch party. This smelled so good. It's a good thing I didn't add unsweetened coconut flakes bc this was a big bread. #cookbooklove. My husband took a whiff of it and asked if it would be wrong if he licked it to claim ownership.

DebinHawaii Yum! There are few things better than banana bread out of the oven. 😋🍌🍞 8y
Amandajoy I usually make mine with ginger & chocolate chips but this sounds too delicious not to try! (The recipe is from the book tagged.) 8y
Audrey @Amandajoy thanks for the rec. my usual is one I've adapted from Martha Stewart (I add ccc, nuts and sometimes ginger chips). Nothing has quite matched it. I can't wait to dive into this one bc the cardamom smells so good. (edited) 8y
Audrey @DebinHawaii sometimes the smell of food cooking makes me want to chew my arm off. This banana bread smelled especially delicious. 8y
