Cookbook Meme

I found this Cookbook Meme on Dagmar's site A Cat in the Kitchen. I thought I would give it a go.

1. How many cookbooks do you own?
I own 75+ cookbooks.

2. Which cookbook is the one you bought most recently?
"The Fannie Farmer Cookbook" by Marion Cunningham which I found for $1.00 at a used bookstore.

3. Which cookbook is the one you read most recently?
"Beat the Clock Chicken" by Anne Egan

4. Name five cookbooks which mean a lot to you.
The Modern Family Cookbook 1958 printing by Meta Given - this was the first cookbook I was exposed to and my mom would never give it up. I finally found it on an auction site and now I have my own copy.

Good Housekeeping Illustrated Cookbook - I love this cookbook. It has basic instructions and lots of pictures. It came with my first house, the previous owners left it behind. :)

Calling All Cooks (Yellow) by Telephone Pioneers of America - Alabama Chapter - 738 pages of family recipes donated by people working with the telephone company. My mother-in-law gave this book to me my first Christmas and I love it.

Pillsbury The Complete Book of Baking - A great baking book. I love to bake and everyone always gives nice compliments on my desserts, some of which were made from recipes in this book.

The Internet - Of course! This is usually where I get my recipes from because it is so nice to get reviews and comments before you chance a recipe.

But my all-time favorite and most used cookbook is (drum roll please)....My Favorite Recipes binder. A binder filled with recipes from various sources I have made and will make again and again and again. It is the most used cookbook in my home.
