It's nice having free recipes online but I really just want a book to hold with recipes inside. I actually included a cookbook in my Chrismtas wishlist that I gave to my family lol! Hopefully someone will buy me one :P<br /><br />Jessica<br /><a href="http://the.pyreflies.org" rel="nofollow">the.pyreflies.org</a>Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08624815388653376598noreply@blogger.com
