Hi Karen:) As you have probably guessed, I just this moment realised we could correspond through this group! So sorry I haven't replied earlier. I am a pleb with anything computer related. I love having a record of my most favourite books, but this is as far as I have come. I dare say you could teach me a few things:)

Hello there- I don' treally have many US books, primarily for the same reason - I have a series of books(yet to put on) but when you look on, say Amazon, it's hard to recognise the "household" names isn't it?
I have a few breadmaking books I want to get(I have one on long term loan from my mum), and feel there is a lot out there in the US that sounds really interesting.
I supppose this site will help to find out the "good" US books to buy don't you think?
Also, the forums will be a good place to throw in a few names as well.
And..........there is this "linking" up that we are doing now that gives us the opportunites to ask about the US cookbook scene.....so it is all good news I think
I will hunt out the few US titles I have and get them up when I get a few free minutes.
I want to get up all my cookbboks first, and THEN..........I want to start to review and put notes on there as well, which shoild keep my quite busy I think! One day I will add the rest of my books as well.
Also, I think that there as some really good US food blogs that give one a flavour of the cookery Anyyway, keep in touch!
ps - I do have loads of the (Australian Womens Weekly magazine booklet series.) I love them, old and new!

Hello - I see we are both very busy adding our respective cookery collections today!
We currently share 12 books, but I am only just starting, so perhaps we will share even more by the end (if I ever get there!)
How far through your cookery listing are you????
we also seem to be the newbies on the site, as I joined just after you.
