The Waco library system has really been a friend of the Fuquas here lately. We make a trip once every week and half or so and load up with some reading entertainment. Lately I've been on Patricia Cornwell kick and her Kay Scarpetta series. It's a mystery series surrounding a medical examiner/lawyer from Virginia who gets caught up in all sorts of murder and trouble. I've also discovered the joys of library cookbooks. There are a lot of ancient cookbooks to sort through, but you can find a gem or two hiding in the stacks. Recently I've checked out one of Ina Garten's cookbooks, as well as Ellie Krieger and some baking cookbooks. Erik made some really good brownies last week out of one of these.
For lack of anything better to do with my time I decided to make my own cookbook using a downloadable application called Booksmart. It's a really neat program where you can design your cookbook, upload recipes and pictures, and then when you're done you pay a fee and they mail it to you. This is something I'm going to take my time on, since I'm always trying out new recipes and searching for easy and quick meals. I figured this would be a good hobby for me and worth the investment of my time.
In other news, the highs this week are 106 and 107. Yeah, it's hot here.
