Alright...here it goes. My first blog entry! After much thought, I have finally decided to start a food blog, called 'An Open Cookbook'. The title is influenced by one of my New Year's resolutions, which is to cook at least one recipe from a cookbook that I already own, at least once a week. Over the holidays last winter, I realized how many cookbooks I have sitting on my bookshelf that were staring at me longingly everytime I cooked. It seemed that every time I made something for a party, or dinner, etc. I would end up looking up a recipe online, despite having armfuls of cookbooks at home. The whole concept of opening up a cookbook was becoming obsolete...
So in 2010, I vowed to open the cookbooks and start cooking, and took notes in a recipe journal. And over time, I started taking more and more pictures. As much time that I spend on a computer everyday, I thought it would be more interesting to start posting these culinary adventures online, for more people to see.
So..wonderful online world...here is a start to this lovely project!
