Talk Healthy

For me, it is memoir.

Pick only one kind... that's so funny..

C'mon . . . you can do it!

Nope

I read more novels than anything else. I get irritated by short stories. I actually really enjoy reading cookbooks. I never make anything out of them but they're fun to read.

What kind of cookbooks, Blush?

Mainly healthy ones, LB. I have these schemes of cooking actual recipes and then I just end up throwing meals together.

I have The Healthy Family: Cooking for the Rushed by Sandi Richard on hold at the library for me right now; just waiting for it to come in. She has a show on Food Network Canada that I really like.

I also like slow cooker books and "quick and easy" cookbooks; I try to figure out how to make some of the recipes healthier.

I stay away from baking, grilling and fancy cookbooks because I know I wouldn't even attempt the stuff in there. I know how to make some basic cakes and cookies; I don't need to start messing with letting things rise etc.

How the hell am I supposed to pick only one favorite?

My reading schedule tends to go like this:

1. Social science nonfiction (for example The God Delusion, Suburban Nation, The End of Poverty)

2. Science/nature nonfiction (currently reading The Diversity of Life, another recent example is Cry of the Kalahari - which is also a memoir)

3. Fiction. The fiction selections alternate between fluff and substance.

Repeat.

I Like True Crime books and reading about culty religions..

if the FBI ever looked at my library check outs I"d be in trouble

There is nothing better than good science fiction!
