Week 7 Cooking

This week I'll be cooking out of the Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book. Though, it is not the 2006 version that I have linked to, but the 2000 edition. right off the bat, looking through this cookbook and the soup recipes just struck me as not as good as I've been growing used to. Bullion? yeah I don't think so. Anyways, this is one of Shannon's cookbooks, not one I picked out. I really tried to go out of the Anthony Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook, but between not being sure I could get the ingredients and some of them I know not being in season or even available, I went with this one. I think this will be a good break though, most of these recipes are fairly simple...and after spending 2+ hours on some of the recipes in the past...It'll be nice to be a bit more simple
