Added to my meager equipment is my lack of skills. So I decided last week that I need to find a cookbook that is laid out like a cooking course. One book that I've added to my TBR list is The Amateur Gourmet: How to Shop, Chop, and Table Hop Like a Pro (Almost)
--In other kitchen-related news: I think my twins are addicted to the smell of basil. Our thriving basil plants went all brown after the frost earlier this week. I asked them if I should plant more in my kitchen pots, and they shouted yes!
Despite the cold, my other plants are still showing signs of life. Outside, my broccoli and cauliflower seem to be thriving but I haven't seen any heads yet. The one collard green plant that survived is doing well, although I don't think I will get more than one serving out of it once the leaves are cooked down. I also have onions that are coming up. My stevia, which is supposed to be difficult to grow, is doing well. Even my scraggly mint is perking up. Hopefully, I will be able to convince ABM to let me enlarge my plot so I can grow even more veggies while my thumb is still green.
--What foodie book do I have on my bedside table? It is called Garlic and Sapphires
