Favorite cookbook??

 I never make new year resolutions-rarely are they even remembered after January and the regular "lose weight, be healthy, save money..." blah blah blah that people always say seems silly

My standards are the Joy of Cooking, an old (pre 1980 vintage) Pilsbury Cookbook and (if I could find one) a 1950s vintage Betty Crocker cookbook.

All have a large variety of dishes that are good, work well, and call for mostly "ingredients" rather than a commercial mix as a base for things.

Super plus is that the Betty Crocker and Joy of Cooking are in 3-ring binder format, so they don't close on you mid-stir.

Oh yea, I forget about the Joy of Cooking! I think Jen has that one-its super old but it would be fun to try some stuff out of. I do prefer my cookbooks with foods instead of mixes to...thanks!
