Toss some items together and see if it works out is the basis of all real cooking.
Most of my friends seem about evenly divided on the Better Homes and Gardens versus Joy of Cooking debate (about which is the better "everyone should have it" cookbook). I lean toward Joy of Cooking as long as it's an old enough edition to have the cuts of meat in it. Better Homes and Gardens has my favorite biscuit recipe in it.
Grandmother and GREAT grandmother recipes! Share please? I love seeing how food and the approach to cookery changes over the years.
