[Sca-cooks] The collection

[Johnna Holloway]

It was so nice meeting you last year at WCCS and I am so sorry to hear you won’t be able to join us in Antir. 
I’ll be there because I already know I have a conflict with the Known World Cooks and Bards which is being held
Labor Day weekend here in the Midrealm.

I want to do all of those things (well most, I don't want to play with hot sugar so much), and have done quite a bit of it.  Losing my cookbook collection has hurt, no doubt.  I am blessed to be the recipient of some of Devra's collection though, she is downsizing and heard about my fire.  I had several boxes of historic cookbooks to open on Christmas Eve and Day!  Some are old favorites and some are new, so that will be wonderful to delve into.

I had a yard sale a few years back where a young man wanted all of my books.  He said that he had always wanted to build a personal library but didn't know where to start.  It was late on Sunday and we proceeded to fill his car with as many of my used paperbacks as we could stuff in.  I set him up with a whole lot of great things, and I know he was excited.
