What are some good books for cooking and recipes?

What are good children books about love?

I am looking for a kids book type thing to give my partner that says I love you, but am having a hard time finding some good ones. I am just after something that is sentimental and sweet and like a kid story that I could give as a gift to celebrate us.Thank you for your help

Can you recommend some good cook or recipe books?

I’ll be honest, I’m no friend of the kitchen. In fact, I hate to cook. However, I just got married and I have no idea what I’m doing in the kitchen. Most of my dinners are frozen prepaired food when you get right down to it, or the same tired old five things I know how to cook. Either way, I’m looking to buy some recipe books or cook books to help me out. I need easy ones, ones that are designed for someone who doesn’t know what all those cooking terms mean (braising? chaffing dish? blanch? Brine?). I know how to turn on the oven, and which pan to use, but, thats pretty much it. I want to come up with some easy to cook and good tasting food that will keep the horror out of my husbands and daughters face when they see me in the kitchen. I know there are tons of websites, but, I’m looking for books…. any ideas?

Looking for cheap healthy cook books?

I like to cook a lot, and I also like to cook healthy meals for my family. Is there a cook book out there that has recipes for healthy, yet cheap meals?

Best cooking utensils and books?

I’m 20 years old and I really want to start being a good cook. I can do all the basic things but I’m trying to be really good.
What are the best cook books for someone trying to get better and what utensils or cooking equipment do you think everyone needs?

I’m looking for some books for my mom. She likes books where kids get kidnapped because there is something real about them. So, if you know any good books about that, that you would recommend… tell me the name of the book and the author. Thanks.

I want some books that have neat craft ideas for me to use with children I nanny for. Something that maybe a teacher would have to use for craft projects. The children I nanny for are 4 and 7.

Thanks

What are the best books for children 3 and under?

I want my daughter to have a good collection of books and I think that’s what we’ll suggest when family/friends ask what to get for her 1st birthday. Just looking for ideas. Thanks!

What companies publish books with drugs, cursing, sex, and other things like that.

I am looking for a book that was read to me when I was little (in the 80′s) It is about a bear who wakes up (I seem to remember his wife snoring waking him up) and so he goes to find a quieter place to sleep and he sleeps in a hollow tree until spring. I would like to buy this book for my son if I can find it.
