Begining a collection

BEGINNING A COLLECTION
I guess all I need is another blog to take up my time; as if I don't have enough on my plate already. Hopefully this one will be fun and useful.
I love to cook and there are so many dishes I often repeat. Instead of digging through several cookbooks to find a favorite recipe I have decided to put them all in a blog and then have the blog printed into my own personal cookbook. It seems simple. It seems practical - all my information will be in one book in one place and in the kitchen. These recipes are all mine. Admittedly, some I obtained from other sources; but they have been altered to my taste. I seldom find a recipe I like unless I tweak it a bit myself. I have given full credit to other cooks who have contributed.
This morning we had toast made from Emma's homemade cracked wheat bread. Ah, bread as bread should be - hardy, wholesome and delicious. The taste bypassed the flavor of the trendy artisan breads that can be purchased for a hefty price in local stores and I would much rather enjoy the pleasure of baking it up in my own kitchen.
Thank you Emma. This recipe certainly will be a featured item in my collection (with your kind permission, of course).
