my own damn cookbook!

Last night I started writing out recipes in my new Blank Cookbook.  I am so excited about this book.  I can carry one simple book of recipes everywhere I go and have immediate access to the recipes I love to make and share. 
I've been told I don't have the neatest handwriting in the world, so I'm working extra hard to make it legible, which takes a lot longer than I thought.  But I am enjoying my project and know that I will love having one book full of my favorites.  There are 165 recipes that I can use in this book, and I plan on filling every page in time.  Here is the index and the five recipes I've completed. 
It's a beginning, right? Today is glorious, another beautiful Spring day.  I was thinking last night about the recipes I made this past winter in Maine.  I made lots of chili (I went through two chili powder bottles!), soups of all kinds, and grilled cheeses  I love that Spring is here, and I'm craving all things refreshing and cool.  I just made a big pot of iced tea and a nice egg tuna salad with onion, celery, mayo, salt, and pepper.  I ate a little cottage cheese and pear as well.  Delicious!

Today is going to be a good day.  I'm packing and getting organized for Seattle, I'm writing out recipes, and I'm spending time with a friend off to new places and hiking!
Here's to more iced tea, salads, and recipes of my own.  :)
