This is telling, right?
For my birthday yesterday, prior to my weekly poker game, I didn't go out to dinner. Nope, I went to the bookstore and bought (among other things) two cookbooks -- Emeril's Potluck (149 recipes) and Martin Yan's China (101 recipes). 250 new recipes in all, to try out.
Anyways, I had a thought along the lines of the book/movie "Julie & Julia" -- why not see how many of these recipes I can make in one year? 250 recipes in 365 days is definitely doable. Of course, this means I'm going to have one hell of a lot of leftovers to give away, as most of these dishes are meant for more than just a few people, but ... really, why not?
It'll be fun, and I'll vastly expand my culinary horizons. Plus I can post my reactions and critiques, if any. So, a goal!
Day: 1.
Recipes completed: 0/149 (EP), 0/101 (MYC).
