Ann Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Approximately how many cookbooks do you have in your house right now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ry Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I already had a lot of cookbooks but then my son went into Culinary school which added more so....we must have at least 50 (now I wish I was at home and not work so I could actually count them).

Kasey Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 24 plus some little pamphlet-like things!!!!! WOW........that really makes me sound like some kind of COOK or something! NOT!!!! I went on a spree a couple of different times and bought several ~ don't know why really. I THINK in the back of my mind I had visions of actually trying some of the recipes. Hardly has happened at all. I do use a couple of the cookbooks for some dishes I make from time to time. Other than that ! Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLB Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I think we have about 5 or 6 - and I really should be using them more often!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muriel Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 32, including 4 editions of the Betty Crocker Cookbooks. The first ones were called the Betty Crocker Picture Cookbook. I have my M-I-Ls first edition copy printed in 1950. The pictures of "Betty" have changed noteably over the years. Yes, I love cookbooks and, sometimes even use them.

Ann Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 I just counted and was shocked to find that I still have 43 cookbooks! Keep in mind, that I've been selling lots of cookbooks on Ebay and I just had a garage sale and sold some. I knew I was a collector of cookbooks but I had no idea just how bad it really was!!!

ginnyde Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I actually do have about 20 cookbooks. But the true story is that when I moved into my townhouse I had one carton of cookbooks and 24 cartons that contained wine, liquor and wine glasses. What does that say about me? I do use the LCSC cookbooks alot and my DIL has one on them on a cookbook stand in her kitchen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamataca Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Shocked to see that I have 31! The one I use the most is one my husband's grandmother made for us, with all of the family-favorite recipes of hers and ones from her mother. I like getting down the LCSC one and seeing Mom's name in print. What a gift! Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patti B Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I have a bunch of those Pampered Chef pamphlets and maybe one other cookbook. I truly no longer like to cook and wish I could afford to go out to eat every night. Patti B PS - Ginny - need any help with that wine??? I'm your girl!!

Janet B Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 32 - but I only use 3 or 4 of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shineladysue Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I have no idea. Most of them are in a box in my attic. I really don't like to cook. Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
