Guest guest Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 whew.. I'm in good company! thankfully (for him! haha) David (dh) says I can't have too many cookbooks. =) and yes.. good point! I came home with some great books yesterday... the two cookbooks, a cornelia funk book I've been looking for, Hemmingway, the first 50 stories, a book for my daughter, and another fictional book that looked interesting... all for $6.50 =) i love books.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 I feel better being in this large boat with you all. You know it's bad when you go to a used book store and the owner asks you in a snide way, as he registers your order of cookbooks, whether you're planning to do a lot of cooking. I always walk out of there feeling like he doesn't want my business. Hello! What does he care if I just want to read all these cookbooks for inspiration?! -Erin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think he be glad to be selling them all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2005 Report Share Posted December 18, 2005 I'm with you I love books.. Sounds like you got a great deal. I bought 2 Sue Grafton books at the library bookstore they were each $1. I was thrilled. I love to read. It can be an expensive habit though.
