This picture shows Queezle, a quail who lived with us for a year. She because our friend (not dinner), but eventually a wild male courted her through the window, and so she returned to the wild.

Thanks friederike. My mother will visit in June (for a high school graduation), and that is our target. Should be possible.

Great idea, SLTE, go for it. And welcome to cookbooker. This is my favorite community on the internet.

Ah yes, thanks. I was being dense! I cannot tell you how happy I am that our cookbooker family gets to remain intact. Now if my new kitchen could just be finished... our (old) oven keeps being removed and then hooked back up, as we struggle wit…

Thanks, Andrew. I'm not totally clear on how to do this (dashboard tab?), so you could send me an email. Sorry if I am being dense.

Cook's Illustrated does Ottolenghi's roasted butternut squash
I couldn't access the entire article, either, but was able to get to the recipes. I think there is a total of four, and my family thought that this one was the best squash they have ever had.

Probably some general guidelines would be useful, as I bet this issue is not specific for this set of books. Maybe the earlier publication date should take precedence? Or have both cookbooks listed, and I think you can link the reviews?

I looked to see if my library had these books, but no luck!

What cookbooks did you find under the tree?
I like the idea of cooking goals. My major goal is to finally get my remodel done! I will have a fair bit of down time while my kitchen is disassembled. But once that is done.... My goal is to use five of my unused cookbooks - each one making at…

kaye16 - you will love that graphic novel! I actually gave that book to my friend Doreen because it was such a sweet book. SC - I am looking forward to tractor-based recipes. My Amazon order was not expedited, but instead was part of a free shi…

What cookbooks did you find under the tree?
Amazon has not yet delivered "Ottolenghi", and I think that is all I will receive. However -- my birthday is in 2 1/2 weeks, so we can always hope... Which Relish did you receive? I read that graphic novel (with recipes) - and found it …

Confusing recipe instructions - help?
Thanks -- I finally concluded that was the intent. The recipe turned out pretty good. Excellent flavored sauce.

Ottolenghi
Just ordered "ottolenghi", and will wrap it and put it under the tree. :)

Ottolenghi
Kateq -- I didn't read this link previously, but as I sit in Heathrow airport, awaiting our flight home, I think my experience at NOPI was a high point. We (2 of us) were nearly out of cash, and so only ordered two dishes to share plus one des…

Brown, sheesh! We are about to replace a white ceramic sink. Sounds OK, but its so beat up that everything stains it. We will replace with a large stainless undermount.

Yea, I'm sure I would use two ovens. But it gives me pause when considering that a second oven means less storage space. Your kitchen, friederike, sounds amazing!

I'll have to take a look at your kitchen stuff! I am just starting on my remodel, first thing to go is a load-bearing wall. Will probably go with a quartzite countertop, walnut cabinet doors, and essentially no upper cabinets. Right now grap…

Hopefully I will be returning after this trip (if my son gets into Cambridge for college). River Cottage has some really interesting looking classes! And actually, I had NOT thought about Ottolenghi, but will definitely make that happen. So is NO…

Thank you, Andrew. I will make use of my holiday by transcribing all my reviews into the margins of my cookbooks! Not even close to as good as cookbooker, but ... And Andrew, thank you. Cookbooker really turned me into a much better cook. I lea…

I would much rather have him realize that before hand, than have it crash and burn. Maybe going with EYB would be for the best.

Beth, it is very wise to have him consider it carefully! Thanks for the update.

I am going to spatchcock my turkey this year, following Kenji's suggestions on Serious Eats. But last week's New York Time's wednesday food section is the major source of my inspiration. Probably two pies for the four of us, a decis…

I am probably not alone in wondering how things are going for Beth, Andrew, and Beth's hero of a husband. I'm hoping that no news is good news!

Sad News re: Paula Wolfert
So sad... and I'm really happy that this web site, cookbooker, introduced me to Paula Wolfert and her amazing cooking. And I agree, sundaycooking, that comment brought a smile to my face, too.

I've only done one free Craftsy class on bread. These sound great! I'm not doing much right now with dumplings, or other things, because I'm on a new exercise plan that also specifies that 50% of my calories come from protein. borin…

SundayC., we are so happy to have you here. I will also contribute financially, but I have too much on my plate to take on a leadership position. Thanks to all of you!

Oh Beth -- your husband is amazing! We do need to consider how to raise the $$ for the server?? and associated costs?

My only concern would be if it became too much for friederike, and we ended up losing everything. Friederike, I am not doubting your abilities, I just know that over time, some responsibilities turn into burdens. So I am glad you are really thinki…
