Speaking of CHRISTMAS: I came here thinking I would find lots of reviews for Taste of Home's CHRISTMAS cookbooks. (There was one in 2013 (cover looks like chocolate covered cheesecake) and one with gingerbread people on cover for 2018.) NOTHIN…

Problems with adding photos
This is a wild guess. I have a small foodie forum at Pro Boards (Great Food Forum) and we cannot add photos directly from our phones or computers. Instead, any photos must be stored elsewhere (we did not elect to PAY for photo storage). So, you migh…

Cookbooks on Kindle?
Hi all. Been away too long. I'm happy to see that the place is still here and so are you all. I love my Kindles and I now buy most of my cookbooks in Ebook format. I also get them in Ebook format from our county library system. Therefore: the…

Problems with - Huckleberry by Zoe Nathan
They reissued the book (Amazon sent it out for free) and it had some fixes but more errors that weren't in the first book. I threw both books away.

I have bookshelves in every room. I have one for male authors (in author's name alpha order) and one for female. These are general topic books. Then I have vegetarian bookshelves, author alpha order. One just for baking, author alpha order. Som…

New York Times recipe index, beta available
Queezle - I would love to hear more about your cooktop. We bought one of those portable induction cookers for the RV and like it. We have to replace our ceramic top stove. Induction might be the future?? What do you think?

Ebooks - Cookbooks?
Yes, a zero for page number sounds like a good idea if reviewed recipes is from an Ebook with no page numbers in it. That would be a way to flag other folks to enter it, if they want to, from their hard copy. I sure wouldn't mind going through…

I do enjoy reading some cookbooks on my Kindle Fire--but mostly use Kindle when I climb into bed...each night...for an hour (or two). I'm totally in love with my Kindle, the light in it...makes for great bedtime reading. I like cookbooks on i…

ISBN scanning tool
I am thinking about doing the same thing. I have 3,000 cookbooks. I have them mostly in Readerware and in Collectorz. It would be great if Cookbooker could import from a list of ISBN's...reason: it is fairly simple to create a list of ISBN'…

Next challenge?
For what it's worth, I think it would be good to keep challenges fairly general in order to bring in more people to the fun. (Which cookbooks would MOST folks have or like to cook from? is what I'd be thinking.) For myself, I would have a…
