30 Days of Thankfulness - Day 15: Recipes

Might sound pretty silly, but today I'm thankful for recipes!

I love food, there's no question about that.  I also love to cook.  Here's the thing about cooking though, I don't consider myself extremely creative to make up something new when I step into the kitchen.  Okay, well I've never ever done that (my sister's the one that's good at that).  So I rely on recipes to help me create my cuisine masterpieces.  Finding new recipes has somehow become a hobby of mine.  I have several cookbooks that are my go-tos for recipes and how-tos... The Better Homes and Garden Cookbook is my all-time favorite. 

However, more often than not these days, you're going to walk in on me with my laptop sitting on the counter because I love to find recipes online.  Websites like www.allrecipes.com and www.skinnytaste.com are my favorites!!  Friends that share their recipes on Facebook and through email are even more inspiration.  Might sound crazy but some of the cooking blogs I visit regularly are part of my inspiration to have a blog of my own!

So today, I am very thankful for recipes, cookbooks, and all the other ways that I find to try something new in the kitchen.  (My family thanks you too... otherwise it would be the same old boring stuff day after day!)
