How to Buy a Good Cookbook (And Use It!)
By Patti Hutchison 		  
1     Do you love to cook? Do you hate to cook? Either way, a cookbook is a good tool for you to use. What's in a cookbook? What kind should you buy? How do you use a cookbook?
 
2     First of all, you need to find a good, basic cookbook. They are sold in many different stores. Try looking in your local bookstore. They will probably have the best variety.
