Well, I am one of them who thoroughly enjoys cooking and I collect recipes and get whatever cookbooks I can get my hands on...but I'm not one of those who usually has very good luck scanning cookbooks, so I'm very grateful to anyone who can pull it off and do it well! Take care.

Having validated a couple of cookbooks for people, I know how tedious it can be to go through and fix the fractions in the ingredients lists. I'm sure those who enjoy cooking--and I'm not one of them--smile--will enjoy your cookbook and thing of you gratefully.
