Nice Cookbook photos
A few nice cookbook images I found:
Sunday breakfast.

Sam left early to go brew beer. I stayed curled up in bed reading Nigella Lawson’s latest cookbook. At one point, I got up to see what naughty kitties were up to and while I was up I turned on the oven and threw in a sweet potato. I read until I was starving and I could smell the rich scent of baked sweet potato wafting. While reading, I had been thinking about what to top my tater with.
I put a pan on the stove and poured in some maple syrup. I squeezed in the juice of the two remaining blood oranges (am I the only one suckered in to buying bags of reduced produce and having half of it rot before I get to it thus negating the cost savings??) and I was going to put in a dollop of butter but we were out of that too. I reduced the mixture back down to a syrup while making coffee. I sprinkled the sweet potato with toasted pecans, walnuts and few grains of Maldon sea salt. It was delicious.
This is why I read cookbooks like novels. Not because I am going to make the recipes within but because they inspire me. They make me want to cook. They make me hungry.
