Cooking by the Book.

When it comes to cooking, I'm definitely a recipe girl. The fact that I'm not especially comfortable in the kitchen contributes to that—but I try. While I try to cook quick, healthy meals during the week, I love indulging on Sundays.

Last Sunday I decided to try a recipe from one of my newest books Everyday Italian: 125 Simple and Delicious Recipes by Giada De Laurentiss. I really like the modern look and layout of this book. But really, she had me at simple and delicious. The manicotti recipe I tried was super simple and didn't take much time at all. Mot importantly, it was delicious.

Boiling, filling, sampling.

This is the part where I usually burn my tongue.

Next up, I'd like to try some of her sauces. I had to settle for store-bought this time around.
