How do you choose which cookbooks to buy? I have to admit that I rarely buy them for myself, I give them, and receive them as gifts. Well, aside from the times I’ve been dieting, and bought the latest diet craze book, with a matching cookbook.

Nigella Lawson’s a favorite cookbook author of mine. Most of her recipes are easy, and they always taste great. If you haven’t sampled any of her recipes, check around the web, and try some. You’ll be pleased — and your friends will be impressed, if you’re giving a dinner party.
