Right now, anyone who knows me well is probably saying "Foodies!!!???? Has she lost her mind?"
Or words to that effect.
Because if they know me well, they know I have a real aversion to any kind of kitchen work. Putting it mildly, I'm not much of a cook -- actually I'm not anything of a cook. Can't cook, never could. Never really enjoyed trying. But in 2015, I'm determined to change that. Everyone should be able to cook, at least a little -- right? And I'm thinking maybe looking at a few cookbooks might be a good way to help me along. (Recipes -- what a concept!)
In reality, I know I'll probably just end up reading food-themed mystery novels, but that's OK, too. At least I'll have made an effort.
The 2015 Foodies challenge is hosted by Vicki from I'd Rather Be At The Beach, and runs through December 31, 2015. You can read all about it and sign up by visiting THE CHALLENGE BLOG. There are several levels of participation to choose from --
- Short-Order Cook: 1 to 3 books
- Pastry Chef: 4 to 8 books
- Sous-Chef: 9 to 13 books
- Chef de Cuisine: 14 to 18
- Cordon-Bleu Chef: More than 19
During the year, I'll be tracking my progress over on my challenge blog (HERE). So, bon appétit, and happy reading!
I can cook but avoid it when I can. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind cooking if the people I cook for liked what I cook!
ReplyDeleteFood-themed mystery novels can be inspiring, too -- they even have recipes! If you do end up cooking, be sure to check out the Weekend Cooking link-up at Beth Fish Reads: http://www.bethfishreads.com/
ReplyDeleteLots of inspiration there, too!
