Aside from the fact that no family photos, tea pots, or other tea related items were displayed in front of the books as they are in my house, the rest of the photo looks exactly like my collection of cookbooks. I even think we both have the same pair of double bookcases. My collection is heavy on Junior League cookbooks, books on afternoon tea, and cookbooks from throughout the South. I look forward to reading more of your blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18734696.post-7109990765123142902008-01-17T18:18:00.000-08:002008-01-17T18:18:00.000-08:00I just got a new cookbook for Christmas that is gr...I just got a new cookbook for Christmas that is great fun to read: Nigella Bites by Nigella Lawson.

And mine are permanently stored in the living room as my kitchen doesn't have that much space. I have about 30 in the kitchen that I reference with regularity, but the others are upstairs where I can read them at my leisure; selecting new recipes to try for family and friends.
