Actually, I don't think I own this book, but the one I have isn't showing up.

I have just plain ol' Cooking for Dummies. Not Basic. But this entry will do the job just fine, I suppose.

I like to cook, but let's face it - I'm a little dumb. I need things to remind me how many cups are in a tablespoon or how many litres will fit in a shot glass. I need something to walk me through the act of boiling eggs. I will never in my life remember how to make a roux, so I need it written out for me.

And that's what this book does. It lists all the simple, basic, dumb stuff about cooking and provides an easy resource so goons like me can actually stumble through the kitchen and crank out meals which actually get compliments from dinner guests!

If only they knew my secret is that I am a big dummie. DON'T TELL A SOUL...
