Baking cookbooks
I’m looking add to my cookbook collection. I’m realizing that I like baking desserts far more than making anything else. Odd, because I’m not really a fan of sweets. But they’re so cute. Suggestions for baking cookbooks?

Adventures with Chorizo
Chorizo is probably common place to many of you. It’s new to me. I wanted to try some. So I scrambled it with eggs, pinch of salt, & fresh ground black pepper. ‘Twas a bit spicy. In fact, I couldn’t eat it. I guess there are non spicy varieties. Lesson learned while breaching out.

The Best and Worst Products at Trader Joe's →
I knew those Turkey Meatloaf Muffins were a bad idea. Glad I never spent money on them. I love the Kobe Beef burgers, tea & lemonade, sugar chocolate and coffee grinder, and dark chocolate pretzel slims. I have to disagree with them on the Breakfast scrambles on the Best list. I found them to be quite unpleasant.

Olive Garden diners lack taste buds. →
I’d rather go home and eat a sandwich than go to Olive Garden. And capers aren’t confusing. They’re quite tasty in dishes.

Show me how you "burlesque"
Christina Aguilera’s movie is on Starz now. I think the general consensus is that this film was terrible. I thought it was decent. Plus, I loved her look (no awful white-blond hair). The music is catchy. The story was quite predictable. Aguilera is more watchable as an actor than Beyonce.
